Answer:

A. Many thought it a waste of money and called it "Seward´s Folly".

Explanation:

The Alaska Purchase was the acquisition of 586,412 square miles of new territory to the United States by buying that territory to Russia.

The reaction to the purchase was mostly positive because many people believed that Alaska would serve as a base to expand American trade to Asia. Those against the purchase labeled it "Seward´s Folly" or "Seward´s Icebox" because they thought that the U.S. government had acquired useless land.
