From Internet:

Displacement is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction. The shortest distance between the initial and final point of an object within a particular time is considered to be displacement. It is defined as the change in the position of an object. Displacement is known as a vector quantity having a direction and magnitude.
answer is b Distance is a scalar quantity, and displacement is a vector quantity. :)
