If two goods are substitutes, then O an increase in the price of one causes the demand for the other to fall.

The figure to the right represents the demand for ice cream cones. Which of the following statements is true? O A. Points a and b may not necessarily be the utility - maximizing quantities of ice cream cones at two different prices because we have no information on the consumer's budget or the price of other goods. B. Points a and b are the utility - maximizing quantities of ice cream cones at two different prices of ice cream. O C. Points a and b are derived independently of the utility - maximizing model. O D. Point a could be a utility - maximizing choice if the price is $3 but point b may not be because we have no information on the marginal utility per dollar when price changes.
