An increase in supply, caused by a positive change in technology, would lead to a decrease in the price of flat-screen televisions and an increase in the quantity demanded due to the law of supply and demand. Therefore, only option C correctly completes the statement. Option A incorrectly suggests a decrease in demand for flat-screen televisions, and option B incorrectly suggests a decrease in the equilibrium quantity. Option D suggests a decrease in supply, which is not consistent with the initial statement.
