b. lower demand will prevent large decreases in timber prices.
c. there will be large shortfalls in timber supplies.
d. there will be large surpluses of timber supplies.

Lower demand will prevent large increases in timber prices.

Explanation:

The law of demand in economics states that, if all other factors remain equal, the higher the price of a particular good, the lesser the demand for that good. In other words, the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded.

Hence, if demand increases and supply remains unchanged, it now leads to higher equilibrium price and higher quantity demanded. If demand decreases and supply remains unchanged, then it now leads to lower equilibrium price and lower quantity demanded.

Hence a lower demand for timber will prevent an undue increase in the price of timber thus lowering the price.
