Your choice is wrong @Prathamesh Shinde.

Because here feed is liquid to get the steam right, phase change takes place. And coal is used as fuel for heating feed.

A boiler is a device that converts the latent or sensible heat of a fluid (often a hot fluid like steam or hot gases) into the latent heat of vaporization of another fluid, typically water, to produce steam.

Because in the boiler, feed is not fluid it is coal that's why heat exchanger is the correct answer.

Reboiler can give latent/sensible heat of a fluid to another fluid as latent heat.

The heat exchanger can exchange heat mostly sensible heat.
