I apologize for the incorrect response. The correct answer is c) They withdrew their support of the British. The French saw the British defeat at Saratoga as a turning point in the war and decided to openly support the American colonies in their fight for independence. This support eventually led to the formal alliance between France and the United States in 1778.
