Here emitter base junction of npn transistor is forward biased with a battery and resistance R. If value of R is reduced, then the current in the input circuit increases and hence emitter current `I_(e)` increases.
Therefore the collector current `I_c=I_(e)-I_b` will also increase. Due to it the bulb will glow more brillantly.
voltage V measures the potential difference across lamp L. Due to increase in collector current, the potential difference across L increases, hence the reading of voltage will increase.
