Negative income elasticity: In this case, while income rises, quantity demanded falls. For example: inferior goods. Now there Ey < 0.

Positive income Elasticity: In this case, a raise in income may lead to a raise in the quantity demanded. It is, when income increased, demand also rises. That is Ey > 0.
