The correct answer is: **They are both singular or both plural.**
Subject-verb agreement means that the subject of a sentence and the verb must match in number—both should be singular or both should be plural.

Yes, I am sure. In grammar, subject-verb agreement specifically refers to the requirement that the subject and verb in a sentence must match in number. This means that if the subject is singular, the verb must also be singular, and if the subject is plural, the verb must be plural as well.
For example:
- Singular: "The cat runs."
- Plural: "The cats run."
So, the correct choice from your list is indeed: **They are both singular or both plural.**
