c. I and III

Explanation: Paying debts quickly (on time and reducing balances) improves payment history and lowers credit utilization, both good for scores. Long-standing lines of credit lengthen your credit history, which also helps. Recent debts or newly opened accounts can hurt scores by lowering average account age and potentially increasing inquiries.
