Answer Key / Explanation : (b,c) -

(b,c)

During the elimination reaction, two eliminating groups should be in anti-position, so less substituted alkene (Hofmann product) is formed

So, statement (a) is wrong but (b) is correct

c. HI + P reduces aldehyde to alkane, so the product is correct

d. oxidises selectively allylic or benzylic hydroxyl group. So (A) does not have any allylic or benzylic hydroxyl group. Hence, no reaction occurs. Thus, wrong product. So the answers are (b) and (c)
