Changing the contribution rates will affect the coefficients of the objective function, which in turn will affect the slope of the isoprofit or isocost lines. This will not necessarily change the feasible region or make the problem no longer linear. It is possible that changing the contribution rates could result in a change to the optimal solution, but it is not guaranteed.
