Answer: a

Explanation: If you think about it, A would require less people to want to use the bus and yet they are likely using the bus due to a lack of car/motorbike. This would result into people walking or using a bike. Decreasing the price of cars would make people want to buy more cars, increasing the demand for petrol. A decrease in the price of petrol would make more want to receive it, increasing the demand.
