An economist observes a graph of the UK's real GDP from 1875 to 2023. The graph uses a vertical scale where equal vertical distances represent equal percentage changes (a ratio scale). The overall trend is an upward-sloping line that is approximately straight. However, the slope of this line is noticeably steeper for the period 1945-1975 compared to the period 2000-2023. What is the most accurate conclusion to be drawn from these observations?

Evaluating a Claim on UK Economic History
True or False: If a country's real GDP, when plotted on a graph with a ratio scale on the vertical axis, forms a perfectly straight, upward-sloping line over a century, it means that the absolute monetary value added to the economy was the same each year.
