I plotted the yield curve. It is a "NORMAL" Yield Curve also referred to as positive yield curve. This is called such because the short-term yields are lower than the long-term yields.

A positive yield curve is indicative of investors requiring higher rates of return for taking the added risk of lending money for a longer period of time.

Based on the yield curve, it would make sense to borrow short-term and renew the loan than to borrow long term.
