The correct answer is:

b. the quantity of goods and services the government, households, firms, and customers abroad want to buy.

Aggregate demand is a measure of the total demand for goods and services within an economy at a given overall price level and in a given time period. It typically includes consumption by households, investment by firms, government spending, and net exports (exports minus imports, which account for demand from abroad).
