The object only has gravitational force when it is on the surface of a massive body, such as Earth.

The greater the object’s mass and the closer it is, the greater its gravitational force.

The correct statement that best describes the gravitational force of an object is:
The greater the object’s mass and the closer it is, the greater its gravitational force.
This is consistent with the law of universal gravitation, which states that gravitational force increases with mass and decreases with the square of the distance between the centers of the two masses.
