Solution

The correct option is B False
An adjective clause is a group of words that contain a subject and a verb, and it functions as an adjective that modifies a noun or a pronoun. Adjective clauses usually begin with relative pronouns such as who, whom, whose or a relative adverb like when, where and so on.
The underlined words form an adjective phrase that modifies the noun "person"; it has no subject or verb. Hence the statement is false and option B is correct, A is incorrect.
