Reason (R): We use LED in forward bias.
Solution:
Assertion (A) is true in a nuanced sense; while intensity generally increases with voltage/current, at very high currents, efficiency can decrease due to thermal effects or Auger recombination (LED droop), leading to a peak and subsequent decrease in intensity. Reason (R) is true; LEDs are operated in forward bias. However, (R) does not explain the intensity variation described in (A).
