as an electron moves from a high potential to low potential , its electrical potential energy decreases due to converting potential energy to kinetic energy.
Hope it would help you!

Moving from a region of high potential to low potential, the electron accelerates. Thus, its electric potential energy is converted to other forms of energy and B) decreases
