Solution

The correct option is A real, inverted

Light travels in a straight line, light from the top of the object after passing through the pinhole will reach the bottom of camera screen and light from the bottom of the object will pass through the pinhole and reach the top of the screen as you can see in the figure. Also, since the image is formed on a screen, the image is real.
