Solution
Given the aggregate demand, if short-run aggregate supply shifts to the right then it results in fall in price level and rise in real GDP.
Given the aggregate demand, if short-run aggregate supply shifts to the left then it results in rise in price level and fall in real GDP.
Given the short-run aggregate supply, if aggegate demand shifts to the right then it results in rise in price level and rise in real GDP.
Given the short-run aggregate supply, if aggegate demand shifts to the left then it results in fall in price level and fall in real GDP.
As we can see that both price level and real GDP rise when aggregate demand shifts to the right.
Hence, the correct answer is option (C).
