The correct answer is:  [B]:  "decreased" .
________________________________________________________
<u>Note</u>:
________________________________________________________
        In a graph of "coal reserves in the United States" vs. "time" ; 

→ the "time" is the "independent variable" that belongs on the "x-axis" .

→ The quantity or amount of "coal reserves in the United States" is the "dependent variable" that belongs on the "y-axis" . 

       If the graph "slopes downward" ;  this would indicate a "decrease" in the amount/quantity of "coal reserves" over "time" .  

→  As the value of "x" increases — "time" increases — and; as "x" increases, the value of "y" {the amount/quantity of "coal reserves"} decreases.  

→ This would be represented by a "downward sloping" graph;  

→  and, among the answer choices given, could indicate that coal production:
_______________________________________________________
                     →  "decreased" ;    
_______________________________________________________
→  which is:  Answer choice:  [B]:  "decreased" .

Other kingdoms like the bacteria have varied forms of producer, both the autotrophs like the cyanobacteria and the chemotrophs like halothiobacillus that use the internal heat of the Earth at the bottom of the dark ocean floor to synthesise their food.
