Technical Interview Question - Cash Flow Scenarios

Does anyone have any insight/has anyone gotten this question in an interview:

"Three scenarios of cash flow increases, decreases, remains flat over 5 years. Give example of three roles that would like to see each of the three scenarios."?

Would be very appreciative of what the correct answer would be for a few different scenarios. I'm guessing it's something like: Q: "If cash flows from financing went down $100, what types of roles would want to see that?"

If anyone can shed more light I'd be grateful.

Thanks.
