    The correct answer is Option B.

    Explanation:

    As per the data given in the question,

    Eligible for legal citizenship = 63%

    Error = 3%

    Level of confidence = 95%

    Here, the CI is 63% ± 3%, which means 60% to 66% and this indicates that with 95% confidence, the true proportion lies between this interval

    This is shown by option B

    Hence, option B is correct answer
