- a fall in the income of the consumer

Correct Option: A
In economics, the law states that, all else being equal, as the price of a product increases, quantity demanded falls; likewise, as the price of a product decreases, quantity demanded increases. So basically the quantity demanded and the price of a commodity is inversely related, other things remaining constant.
