borishaifa [10]
All you have to do is substitute the y values to the equation to solve the corresponding c values which stands for the consumption levels. To illustrate the solution, 

when y = 100,
C = <span>120+0.65(100)
C = 185

</span>when y = 120,
C = 120+0.65(120)
C = 198

when y = 125,
C = 120+0.65(100)
C = 201.25

And so on and so forth. The answers would be:

     y             C
   100         185
   120         198
   125       201.25
   140         211
    80          172
   115       194.75
   145       214.25
