Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

There are two substitution effects that affect aggregate demand and help account for the negative slope of the AD curve. First, an increase in the price level raises the interest rate, which reduces the quantity of real GDP demanded. Second, an increase in the U.S. price level raises the price of U.S. goods relative to foreign goods which also decreases the quantity of U.S. real GDP demanded.
