    When object is moving in circular path then if suddenly its force reduced to zero then it will move to straight line

    This is defined by Newton's First Law

    So as per first law of Newton we can say

    When there is no net force on an object then it will continue its state of motion in its original state without any change in it.

    This is also known as law of inertia

    so correct answer will be

    Newton's 1st law
