Both R_m and D_m represent changes in production levels, therefore one variable can be positive (indicating an increase in production) and the other negative (indicating a decrease in production). Option A is incorrect because it assumes there are no changes in production. Option B is incorrect because it assumes there are only increases in production. Option C is incorrect because it assumes there are only decreases in production.
