Solution

The correct option is B rest, motion
All the passengers sitting inside a bus move with the same speed as that of the bus. So, the passengers will be at rest (or not moving) with respect to each other.
Also, since, a person sitting inside the bus moves with the same speed as that of the bus. So, for a stationary observer(person standing outside the bus), the person sitting inside along with the bus will be in motion.
