Solution

The correct option is C with my brother
Prepositional phrases are a group of words containing preposition which lacks either a verb or a subject. Such phrases always have two basic parts: object and preposition. Prepositions are mostly followed by objects.
Using option B will justify all the above rules. 'With my brother is a prepositional phrase as 'with' is the preposition and 'brother' is the object.
Options A, C, and D are not prepositional phrases.
Thus, option B is the correct answer.
