Solution

There remains no doubt that a rubber band is a solid.

Due to appreciable elasticity feature, it gets extended when stretched.

Also, it holds the ability to return back to its original state when relieved. Solids with appreciable elasticity hold the ability to return back to its original shape and get extended when stretched.
