Question

An increase in the money supply curve would most likely result in which of the following situations?

Answer

As with any supply curve increase, price decreases and quantity increases.

Since in the market for money, price is referred to as the interest rate (i.e. the price of borrowing money), the decrease in price is interpreted as a decrease in the interest rate.

An increase (not a decrease) in the quantity of money available would be expected after an increase in the money supply curve.
