a hypothetical question is a question for which one does not expect and answer, but is asked in order to make a point or exemplify an issue. hypothetical questions may be irritating and directed at generating an emotional response or at presenting an issue for which the speaker does not want to reveal the motive.

A hypothetical question is a "what if" question based an assumption (or hypothesis) that may or may not be currently true. A hypothetical question explores the consequences of various possibilities, or the reasoning and attitudes of the person being questioned. E. g. : "If gas cost $20/gallon would people stop driving? "
