In the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Choose the correct option:
Assertion (A): If \(4 \times (-4) = -16\), \(3 \times (-4) = -12\), \(2 \times (-4) = -8\), then \(-1 \times (-4) = 4\).
Reason (R): As the first factor decreases by \(1\), the product increases by \(4\), so continuing the pattern gives \((-1) \times (-4) = 4\).
