Answer: The correct option is C. One, zero.

Explanation:

When income elasticity is greater than one, it indicates that the quantity demanded is greater than the rise in income.

As quantity demanded increases, it will lead to a decrease in price to the extent that the percentage change in price will outweigh the percentage change in quantity demanded, meaning that the price elasticity is greater than zero.

When these two elasticities are combined, the resulting effect will be an increase in the level of consumer spending on smartphones.
