    Answer:b. It shifts to the left

    Explanation:

    The supply will increases as price increases and vice versa. When the price increases and supply also increases the supply curves shifts to the right and when the price decreases and supply equally decreases supply curves shifts to the left.

    In the above scenario since bracelet and necklace are exclusive products the sellers will be willing to supply more of necklace since the price has increased and less of bracelet since the price has fallen and the fall in price which leads to fall in supply of bracelet will shift bracelet supply curves to the left.
