In tag questions like wouldn't they?, the speaker typically seeks confirmation or agreement. A response like That's right provides clear affirmation and keeps the conversation aligned.

Other examples of confirming responses:

  • Yes, exactly.

  • Absolutely, you're correct.

  • I agree completely.

These responses acknowledge and validate the speaker's statement.
