Answer Key / Explanation : (b) -

The given problem is based on arrangement in which words of the input get arranged in alphabetical order from left to right. 

Step I - the word  that comes first in alphabetical order comes to the leftmost position pushing the rest of the line rightward

Step II - the smallest number comes to the second position from leftmost position pushing the rest of the line rightward

Thus, the words and numbers get arranged alternately until the former make an alphabetical order and the latter an ascending order

By applying the above rules for given input, as last step = step VI, therefore last but one step = step V.
