Falls so aggregate demand shifts right.
Explanation: When the money supply increases, the money supply curve shifts right. So, the money supply curve intersects the money demand curve towards the right and at a lower point. Therefore, the interest rate falls.
When the interest rate falls, consumers can avail more credit and spend more. So, aggregate demand increases.
