Solution

The correct options are
B Device to reduce current in $A C$ circuit
C Coil of large inductance
D Coil of negligible resistance
A choke coil is essentially an indutor coil with large inductance and very low resistance.

It offers high inductive-reactance, thus high impedance, to AC voltage and thus limits the current in AC circuit, without increasing the resistance of the circuit.
