The Gini coefficient measures income inequality, while the Lorenz curve displays the distribution of income. As the Gini coefficient (income inequality) becomes larger, it means that the distribution of income is becoming more unequal, and the distance between the line of absolute equality (where everyone earns the same amount) and the Lorenz curve (actual distribution of income) becomes greater. Therefore, option A is the correct answer.

As the ________ Becomes Larger,the Distance Between the Line of Absolute
