df%2Fdx is the rate of change of the original function at any point in the domain of the original function. So, if the original function is increasing, the rate of change must be positive at that point, if it is decreasing, then then rate of change must be negative. So if 7f-14%3C0 for a given value of f, the function must be decreasing.
