All else equal, what happens to consumer surplus if the price of a good decreases?

This is the basics of the law of supply and demand. If the price of a good decreases then the consumer surplus will increase. It also works vice-versa. If things become cheaper more people will buy it, and if it goes up then fewer people will buy it.
