Demand curve is a downward-sloping curve, which shows the relationship between the price and the quantity demanded of a commodity. It is downward sloping because when the price of a commodity is high quantity demanded is low and vice versa. Fir example: If the money income is fixed, when the price of a commodity falls the real income of the consumer increases and their demand to buy commodities increases i.e. (If the price of butter decreases the demand for it increases and vice versa) which shows an inverse relationship between price and quantity demanded of a commodity which leads to a negatively sloping demand curve.
