Possessive adjectives are not pronouns, but rather determiners.Possessive adjectives function as adjectives, so they appear before the noun they modify. They do not replace a noun as pronouns do.

The adjective pronoun of 'I' is 'my'. Thus option B is the correct answer.

'Your' is the adjective pronoun of 'You'.

'His' is the adjective pronoun for 'He'.

'Their' is the adjective pronoun for 'Them'.

Thus options A,C,D are incorrect answers.
