Response bias.
Reason: Interviewing students one-on-one (especially by the instructor) produces social-desirability/interviewer effects so respondents are likely to alter answers. The other choices don't fit: "every other student" is a form of systematic sampling (not inherently selection bias here), there's no mention of question order, and "randomization bias" isn't applicable.
