c. The deeper you dive into the atmospheres of the outer planets, the higher the temperature

Explanation:

At the top of the atmosphere, the temperature ranges between 50 to 200K

which may go up to 300K deep inside the atmosphere. The heat generally is created due to collision of gas molecules inside the atmosphere.
