Correct : a reduction in aggregate supply, a rise in the

Oil is used in the manufacturing of the goods and services. When world oil supply decreases, its price increases. Rise in price of oil increases cost of production. Higher the cost of production lower is the aggregate supply.

Thus aggregate supply decreases leading to decrease in real GDP and increase in price.
