To analyze the data from the table, let's break down the responses:

  1. More children responded positively than adults:

    • Children who like pineapple: 6
    • Adults who like pineapple: 25
    • Conclusion: This statement is false.
  2. More people overall responded negatively:

    • Total negative responses:
      • Children who do not like pineapple: 14
      • Adults who do not like pineapple: 8
      • Total: 14 + 8 = 22
    • Total positive responses:
      • Children who like pineapple: 6
      • Adults who like pineapple: 25
      • Total: 6 + 25 = 31
    • Conclusion: This statement is true since 22 (negative) is less than 31 (positive).
  3. More children were asked the question than adults:

    • Total children: 20
    • Total adults: 33
    • Conclusion: This statement is false.
  4. More adults responded positively than children:

    • Children who like pineapple: 6
    • Adults who like pineapple: 25
    • Conclusion: This statement is true since 25 > 6.

Based on the options, the true statements are:

  • More people overall responded negatively.
  • More adults responded positively than children.

However, since the question asks for which single statement is true based on the data provided, the correct choice is:

More adults responded positively than children.
