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.
