Solution
The correct option is D decline
Slope of IC shows the amount of Good-Y which a consumer is willing to give up for one unit more of Good-X. It is expressed as ‘Change in Y/Change in X’. Since IC is convex to the origin, so, as we move down on the curve from left to right, the slope of IC tends to decline.
