$(B)$ reaches a maximum and then decreases
$(C)$ fall to zero after time $t = a/2b$
$(D)$ changes at a rate $-2b$

$(i)$ $\mathrm{I}=\frac{\text { da }}{\mathrm{dt}}=\mathrm{a}-2 \mathrm{bt}$ (linearly decreasing with time)

$(ii)$ $\mathrm{t} \uparrow \mathrm{I} \downarrow$

$(iii)$ For $\mathrm{I}=0 ; \mathrm{a}-2 \mathrm{bt}=0 ; \mathrm{t}=\mathrm{a} / 2 \mathrm{b}$

$(iv)$ $\frac{\mathrm{dI}}{\mathrm{dt}}=-2 \mathrm{b}$

Hence option $(4)$ is incorrect.
