The third alternative is correct (C).

The government has two main instruments for monetary policy:

-buying or selling government securities

-manupulate the interest rate

The interest rate can be used to stimulate or discourage economic activity. In times of warming, the government may raise the interest rate so that loans become more expensive and people and businesses slow down borrowing. Conversely, in times of stagnation, government can lower the interest rate, this makes credit cheaper and people and companies borrow more.
