There have been months when the number of open tickets in Bugzilla decreased, but IMO that was always due to a mass-cleanup of ancient open tickets and not because of a sudden burst of coding activity.
Bugzilla was a bug tracker for software bug reports & feature requests. Phabricator is a project management tool also welcoming managing projects unrelated to software (e.g. chapter activities) plus superseding activity previously taking place in Mingle, Trello, or RT, which I see as one reason for the amount of activity and tasks.

Just to add to Bartosz's comment, the definition of tasks in Phabricator includes feature requests, so more tasks may or may not correlate with more problems.
Someone in QA may be able to comment with more detail about the number, severity or percentage of problems relative to the number of tickets, and the general quality trends of MediaWiki.

Here are the numbers that I'd like to draw people's attentions to: Tasks created in (2016-05): 2572 Tasks closed in (2016-05): 2275 That's a difference of 297 tasks... Difference (2016-05): 297 Difference (2016-04): 243 Difference (2016-03): 454 Difference (2016-02): 238 Difference (2016-01): 418 These difference should really be negative, but right now it looks like we're slowly accumulating more and more bugs...
We are, and we've always been. If you go through the same data from the time of Bugzilla, I don't think you'll find a single month where the count decreased. I don't remember any myself.
