The part of the business cycle given that shows a period of contraction is Point B.

Why does point B show contraction?

When the economy is in a period of contraction, the business cycle would show a fall from the peak to the trough.

The peak is point A and the trough is Point C. Point B shows the fall from A to C which means that Point B must be the contraction.

In conclusion, option B is correct.
