Solution

The correct option is A True
A defining relative clause gives essential information about someone or something, whereas a non-defining relative clause gives extra or unrelated information about someone/something.
The clause in bold "who spoke to you on the phone" is a relative clause that defines the noun "person" by pointing out which person. Hence it is a defining clause and the statement is true.
Hence option A is correct and B is incorrect.
