Answer: Scientific laws are already proven to work at all times due to extensive experimenting and research on it. They always tell a true fact about natural phenomena. Scientific theories are mostly based on preexisting scientific laws and are to be proven yet. They need to be tested in many different conditions so this can happen and they become true laws.

Therefore, we can infer that both cases are concerned about explaining why some phenomena happen, and in what ways.
