The alternative to a direct relation is an inverse relation, in which an increase in one variable goes with a decrease in the other. Direct relations are graphically illustrated by positively-sloped curves, a common example being the supply curve.

Government purchases by the government sector that do not depend on income or production (especially national income or gross domestic product).
