Nope. A college student is not employed, is he/she?
The definition of "labor force" is: all the members of a particular organization or population who are able to work
A. an eighth grader can have a paper route, but they are normally not paid, it's part of their volunteer training.
B. by retired, that may mean that the person is no longer working, so that's not the answer.
C. Maybe, a full-time college student could work in the cafeteria in order to pay its college.
D. Maybe, if the auto-mechanic works in an organization

Betta -- you are wrong.
An auto mechanic does not have to work in an organization.
An auto mechanic does not have to work in an organization.
Self-employed also counts as a member of the labor force. He/she may own his/her own business.
