Solution

The correct option is B relative
If you are standing by the side of the road and and see a car moving on the road, the car is in motion with respect to you.

If you run along side by side with the moving car, the car is at rest for you. For someone standing on the road, both you and the car will be in motion.

This is why motion is always relative.
