The correct response is:
An unbalanced force can change both the object's direction and speed.
According to Newton's First Law of Motion, an object in motion will stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. This means that an unbalanced force can alter both the speed (by accelerating or decelerating the object) and the direction of motion.
