The graph shows the relationship between the level of inspection and the total quality costs. As the level of inspection increases, the total quality costs also increase up to a certain point, beyond which further inspection does not result in significant improvement in quality, but only adds to the total costs. The objective is to identify the level of inspection that results in the lowest total quality costs, which is the point where the curve reaches its minimum. Therefore, the best choice is to minimize total quality costs, which is option C.
