"overriding idea" meaning the over all idea, helps with answer.
A. setting - couldn't be the setting. We're looking for an overall idea of a fiction story not the background or "theme" , it's the journey through out the story , its ups and downs.
B.conflict- in stories a conflict has a solution , and a story may have various conflicts. it couldn't be the over all idea.
C.Plot- its the plot because, the plot is whats happening in the story, from conflicts to solutions. The overriding idea.
D.Theme- like I said it's not the theme nor setting.

I think the correct answer is: They are both willing to risk their lives.  

If we understand the word "willing" as ready to do something, this means they both are ready to risk their lives. We could think that the correct answer is "They are both helpless and weak" but in the first excerpt although he seems weak, he has been able to get food for his family and escape from the gamekeepers, even hitting them with the slingshot.

What they have in common is that although they are concious that their actions can kill them they are determined to do them. In the first excerpt hunting in the woods is forbidden and if someone gets caught doing it he would be "even killed". The kid has no option but to risk his life to get some food:  "but my family had to eat one way or another."

The second excerpt refers to a pirate's slave, he has a miserable life and it could get worse. He is determined to scape or die trying, we can see that he has nothing else to loose, "I would rather die than spend another minute on that ship."
