Yes, given answer is wrong because in the book C. L. Kochher (page no. 134) the answer is magnetic bearing.

Magnetic bearing is called simply 'bearing' and true bearing also called 'azimuth'. So correct answer is magnetic bearing.

A true bearing to a point is the angle measured in degree in a clockwise direction from the North line. This can simply be referred as the bearing. So true bearing is absolutely correct.

Ans, is false because, true bearing of line is measured from true meridian.
Hence, correct, answer is magnetic meridian because bearing of a line with magnetic meridian is known as magnetic bearing or "simply bearing of a line".
