I think cohesion depends upon type of soil also. For example if we take sand its cohesion is zero. So we can't say anything about cohesion by using moisture content only. In option (A) and (B) we can't find which type of soil it is? in well compacted clay cohesion will be more due to decreasing in porosity.

If A is correct then automatically B option is also correct because inversely proportional.
