The answer is row 1, volume decreases when pressure increases. The given condition is a demonstration of Boyle's Law, which tells that the volume of a given amount of gas reserved at constant temperature is contrariwise proportional to the pressure. When the pressure is augmented by pushing the piston downwards, the gas will be compacted and its volume will decrease.
