    c. consumption falls now and production rises later

    Explanation:

    Income [Y] is the total factor income earned by factors of production productive services, for economic activity.

    Income earned is either consumed or saved.

    Income [Y] = Consumption [C] + Saving [S]

    So, increase in savings rate & savings - reduces the consumption.

    Savings are done for contingencies, for expanding economic activities later - by investment. In a simple economy model,

    Savings [S] = Investment.

    So, savings increase investment & production capacity later.
