Solution

The correct option is B Because Brazil's population is less than India's.
Even though India had a larger GNI in the year 2016, the per capita income was lower than Brazil because of the large population of India. While Brazil still has a lot of land for its people, India's land and natural resource, both are getting exhausted due to high population.
