I believe the answer is: b. Khufu is the oldest and the only one tombs have been discovered in.

It is true that Khufu is the oldest tomb that ever found in pyramid of Giza. But Khufu's tomb is not the only tomb found in the pyramid. For example, archaeologist also managed to found the tomb of Queen Khentkaus I and small mastaba Tombs.
