The correct answer is:

D. increase; increase

Positive reinforcement involves adding a positive stimulus to increase the likelihood of a behavior occurring again, while negative reinforcement involves removing an aversive stimulus to increase the likelihood of a behavior occurring again. Both positive and negative reinforcement aim to strengthen and increase the frequency of desired behaviors.
