Answer:

B. The image on the right is compressed and the compression is lossy.

Explanation:

The image on the right is a little distorted as compared to the left one. And you will find some black spots all around. However, A, B, and C are mentioned, and hence you will find that the right image is compressed, and since A, B and C are represented in full but a little lossy, we can assume that it is lossy compression. You should know that lossless compression is a type of compression in which there is no loss of the data, and in the case of lossy, there is the loss of the original data.
