This is a tag question, used to confirm or check understanding.
A tag question is a short question added to the end of a sentence, used to confirm information or invite agreement. It is formed by:
Taking the auxiliary verb (e.g., would, is, has, will) from the main sentence.
Using the opposite form: positive to negative or negative to positive.
Adding the appropriate pronoun.
In Lisa's sentence:
The main clause is It would affect a lot of tech companies (positive).
The tag is wouldn't it? (negative form of would).
This confirms the statement and invites agreement or feedback.
