उत्तर

a and b

Explanation:

Resistivity is the intrinsic property of the substance. For a metallic conductor, resistivity is given by

`ρ = m/("ne"^2τ)`

Where n is the number of charge carriers per unit volume (number density) which can charge with temperature T and τ is relaxation time (time interval between two successive collisions) which decreases with the increase of temperature `(T  oo  1/τ)`.
