Explanation / Answer

If the demand for bonds will shift to the left, the price of the bond will decrease due to the direct relation between price and demand. The demand for bonds will decrease which will lead to fall in the prices if bonds.

Ans1.- C) decreases and interest rates falls

Because when the demand of bonds will fall, price of bonds will fall as well which will lead to fall in interest rates as people are not will to raise money through bonds and low interest rates will persuade them to do so.

Ans2- D) both the price of bonds and interest rates increases.

As the supply of bonds will shift to the left, the price of bonds will increase because the supply of bonds will be limited and demand remains the same which will lead to excess demand of bonds which will result in increase in prices and will also result in increase in interest rates as people will be willing to buy bonds at a higher interest rate because of less supply.
