The correct option is C Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect
Back emf is actually the induced emf produced in motor. When motor is just switched on. the magnitude of back emf is quite small eine to the low peed of the motor. But the magnitude of back emf is very large at break (when electric supply fails suddenly, while the motor is running).
