The correct statement about nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) is:

They have the same number of electron shells.

Nitrogen is in period 2, and phosphorus is in period 3, meaning they have different numbers of electron shells. They do, however, share the same group in terms of chemical properties and have the same number of valence electrons (5 for both), so that could also be considered correct in the context of their group.

However, among the provided statements, the best one as per their characteristics in the periodic table would be "They have the same number of valence electrons." because both belong to group 15 (or Group V).
