    Option (b) is correct.

    Explanation:

    (i) Law of supply states that if there is an increase in the price of the commodity then as a result the quantity supplied for that commodity also increases and if there is a decrease in the price of the commodity then as a result the quantity supplied for that commodity also decreases.

    So, there is a relationship between price and quantity supplied not supply.

    (ii) If there is an increase in the cost of production of eggs then as a result the producers of egg will reduce the production of eggs. Hence, this will lead to reduce the supply of eggs in the market.

    Therefore, the second statement is correct.
