Solution

The correct option is C 31,19
|z2|=6 resresents a circle of radius 6 centred at (0,0).
z1=24+7i represents a point A(24,7).
Let a diameter through A meet the circle in points B and C, then AB is least and AC is greatest distance of A from the circle.
Clearly AO2=242+72=625
AO=25
Greatest distance =AB=AO+BO=256=31
Least distance =AB=AOBO=256=19
