The issue was whether a state had to obey a national law that it did not like, as you can see from the article above. What was supreme, a state's rights or the national government acting in the interests of the entire nation? The Constitution seems to be clear on the subject.

Answer 2

I googled the nullification crisis and the supremacy clause. Yes, A is the right answer. You'll find good explanations if you research each of these terms separately.
