The best choice is: "An armistice is a cease-fire agreement, while a peace treaty is a negotiation for peace."

Clarification: an armistice is a formal halt to hostilities (often temporary or preliminary). A peace treaty is a formal agreement that ends the state of war and sets the long-term political, territorial, and legal terms of peace. The other options are incorrect about timing or about what an armistice actually does.
