The easiest way to attempt such questions is to throw in some numbers and do trial and error.

The question is asking about the change in values
p depending on the change in
w. So, let's play around with
w.

Take
w=1, then
p=-0.25* 1+15=14.75
Take
w=2, then
p=-0.25*2+15=-0.5+15=14.5
Take
w=3, then
p=-0.25*3+15=-0.75+15=14.25
.
.
.
Take
w=100, then
p=-0.25*100+15=-25+15=-10

Notice how
p decreases in value for every increase in
w?

Therefore, as
w increases, the value of
p decreases (always).

Ans: B
