Explanation:

Step1: Identify the highest point on the graph

By observing the line - graph, we find the peak value.

Step2: Determine the month with the highest number of orders

The highest value on the y - axis (number of orders) is 2000 in July.

Step3: Calculate the increase in orders for each period

For March - April: $1900 - 2000=- 100$; for April - May: $1700 - 1900=-200$; for May - June: $1750 - 1700 = 50$; for June - July: $2000 - 1750=250$. The largest increase is from June to July.

Answer:

(a) 2000
(b) June to July
