B) If x2 has a positive partial effect on the dependent variable,and δ1 > 0,then the inconsistency in the simple regression slope estimator associated with x1is positive.
C) If x1 has a positive partial effect on the dependent variable,and δ1 > 0,then the inconsistency in the simple regression slope estimator associated with x1is negative.
