Both options mentioned can contribute to plant reproduction with the help of monkeys.
1. When monkeys eat a plant's fruit and then excrete the seeds in new places, it is known as seed dispersal. The seeds go through the monkey's digestive system and are deposited in different locations, allowing the plants to colonize new areas and increase genetic diversity.
2. Seeds can also get stuck in the fur of monkeys as they move through plants and trees. These seeds may then be transported to different locations when the monkeys move around and eventually fall off or brush against other plants. This method helps in seed dispersal as well, allowing plants to spread to new areas.
In both cases, monkeys play a role in transporting seeds from one place to another, aiding in plant reproduction and the establishment of new plant populations.

In that case, I would say that the second option, where seeds get stuck on a monkey's fur and are transported to different places, is a more direct way in which monkeys can help with plant reproduction. While eating fruits and excreting seeds also aids in seed dispersal, the transportation of seeds through fur ensures that the seeds are carried to different locations without going through the digestive system, potentially increasing their chances of successful germination.
