    C) Leisure is an inferior good to Molly

    Explanation:

    Molly increases her working hours even when her wage increases shows that leisure Doesn't even fall in her opportunity cost and therefore is seen as inferior to Molly because she's not sacrificing it

    And the income and substitution effect can't outweigh each other because substitution is another word of saying opportunity cost
