Question 2

Darla is surprised to find that the quality of in-flight service remains much the same despite a steep hike in air-fares recently. What could be wrong in her assumption that a higher price naturally translates into better quality?

Answer to Question 1

True

Answer to Question 2

The fact that two variables might be related does not necessarily mean that one causes the other to occur. Darla could be ignoring other variables involved in this scenario. Increase in fares might have been necessitated by factors such as increase in aviation fuel prices, margin pressures etc.
