The bug number will probably decrease, but this does not meant that the lifetime of a release is long enough to fix them all or even to find them all. E.g. if 5 bugs are fixed every month, you will still have the same rate of updates for 10 months, unless you just delay updates even if the bugs could already be fixed. And also usually not all bugs are known when at the beginning of the release. Regards Till
