Solution

The correct option is B Not to make a noise
Indirect Speech is used to report something in our own words.
In case of order, the pattern for converting direct speech to reported speech is verb + indirect object + to-clause.
The indirect object is the person spoken to.
Thus, the sentence would be - The teacher told the class not to make a noise.
Hence, option B is the correct answer.
