Answer:

The correct answer is option B.

Explanation:

Melanie decided to buy a coat at a price of $79.95.  

When she brought the coat to the​ store's sales​ clerk, Melanie was told that the coat was on​ sale, and she would pay 20 percent less than the price on the tag.

She got a discount worth $15.99.

The consumer surplus, in this case, will be at least $15.99.

This is because the consumer surplus is the difference between the price the consumer is willing to pay for a good and the price he/she actually pays.  

Melanie paid $15.99 less than the price but she may have been willing to pay more than the initial price. So the consumer surplus will be at least $15.99.
