उत्तर
\[ \text{MOC}=\frac{\text{Loss of Good Y}}{\text{Gain of Good X}} \]

Good X (Units) |
Good Y (Units) |

As the production of Good X increases by one unit, the production of Good Y decreases by one unit each time. Thus, MOC remains constant at 1 unit.
Therefore, the PPC will be a downward-sloping straight line due to constant MOC.
