Solution

The correct option is B I, II only correct
Tetrahedral complexes are formed where the central metal has a low oxidation state and where ligands are weak field.
Thus, I and II are correct.
An example of a tetrahedral complex includes is nickel tetracarbonyl $N i (C O)_{4}$ in which the oxidation state of Ni is 0.
