=> 100/240x10^3 ( 0.3-0.6) = 145.8uA.

Why the answer is not -145. 8μA?

The current changes from 25 to 175μdegrees so it should be a negative change.

First get the value of Ib @25°C and @175°C.
Use beta=100 in all equations;

@25°C Vbe=0.65V
Ib1=.65/240x10^3=2.71x10^-6A.

@175°C Vbe=0.3V
Ib2=.3/240x10^3=1.25x10^-6.

I=B*Ib1-(B*Ib2)=(100*2.71x10^-6)-(100*1.25x10^-6)
=146*10^-6A.
