I suppose you're busy, too vs I suppose you are busy

Both phrases are correct, but they are used in slightly different contexts. The first phrase 'I suppose you're busy, too' is used when you are assuming the other person is busy as well, implying that you are also busy. The second phrase 'I suppose you are busy' is a more general assumption about the other person's busyness without the implication that you are busy too.
