I definitely recall a similar question where a consistent decline was labeled as a trend, so I'm leaning towards that answer.

I'm a bit uncertain here; I feel like irregular patterns could also apply, but it doesn't seem to fit as well as trend.

I think a 5-year decline sounds like a trend, but I'm not entirely sure if it could also be cyclic.
