No, only an easy money policy would do both.
lower interest rates..
The control of money supply can be achieved with two main concepts. One is to lower interest rates and the other is to control spending.
According to Economic theory, if the money supply expands, interest rates decrease. All things being equal an expansion in money supply will lead to lower interest rates: 1. Completel Equilibrium (money demanded = money supplied) 2. Monetary expansion (Money demaned < Money supply) 3. Reduce interest rates (increases opportunity cost of savings and so consumers spend more). 4. Money demand = money supply
when money supply is increased, interest rates decrease

lower interest rates to make borrowing money easier.

The Federal Reserve expands the monetary supply by buying government bonds and lowering interest rates. This allows for more money to be put into circulation, making it available for banks and consumers.

when money supply is increased, interest rates decrease
An increase in the money supply shifts the money supply curve to the right. If you look on your graph, you will see that an increase in money supply will cause the interest rate to decrease. Here's why: Fed increases money supply-->excess supply of money at the current interest rate -->people buy bonds to get rid of their excess money-->increase in the prices of bonds --> decrease in the interest rate.
Because: Real interest rate occurs when real money demand = money supply When money supply changes, the equilibrium interest rates changes as this equation shows.
When the interest rates are high, people would prefer to save than holding money. That means money supply in the economy is decreased. Whereas when the interest rates are low people prefer to hold money and spend, means increased money supply in the economy.
