Answer:

B) When the price of ice cream rose, the quantity demanded of ice cream fell and the demand for ice cream topping fell.

Step-by-step explanation:

A rise in the price of a good would lead to a fall in the quantity demanded of the good.

So, a rise in the price of ice-cream would lead to fall in the quantity demanded of ice cream.

A rise in the price of ice-cream would lead to a fall in the demand for ice cream toppings.
