How a function is able to read 'this' value of another function?

Please check this code. How anotherFunc is able to read this values of outerFunc, where both functions are having different scopes?

console.log("hello");

function outerFunc() {
  this.name = "Krishna";
  this.mobile = 12345;
  this.address = "India";

  function innerFunc() {
    console.log(this.name); // "krishna"
    console.log(this.mobile); // 12345
    console.log(this.address); // "India"
  }
  innerFunc();
}

outerFunc();

function anotherFunc() {
  console.log(this.name); // 'Krishna'
  console.log(this.mobile); // 12345
  console.log(this.address); //'India'
}

anotherFunc();

Update:

console.log("hello");

function outerFunc() {
  this.name = "Krishna";
  this.mobile = 12345;
  this.address = "India";

  this.innerFunc = function () {
    console.log(this.name);
    console.log(this.mobile);
    console.log(this.address);
  };
}

let func = new outerFunc();
func.innerFunc();

function anotherFunc() {
  console.log(this.name); // 'Krishna'
  console.log(this.mobile); // undefined
  console.log(this.address); // undefined
}

anotherFunc();
