Answer to Question 1

C A fall in the price of the good creates a movement along the supply curve and decreases the quantity supplied.

Answer to Question 2

Inflation is stable when the unemployment rate is equal to the natural rate of unemployment. Since last year's unemployment rate was equal to the natural rate of unemployment, the inflation rate should not change.
