The correct statement is:
The acceleration will be directed in the direction of the net force.
According to Newton's second law of motion, the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass. Therefore, the acceleration is always in the direction of the net force acting on the object.
