Option B should be the right option because to escape from the problem, we should have a solution that is clearly mentioned in the above statement.

Statement: The best way to escape from a problem is to solve it.

For conclusion B: "To escape from problems, you should always have some solutions with you".

Now in a statement it's given that in order to escape a problem is TO SOLVE IT. Now conclusion B says, you SHOULD HAVE some solutions. It is not mandatory according to the statement for a person to have a solution but a will to solve it.

The statement says 'best way'.

There might be other ways but they are all 'solutions'; whether best or not.

So therefore, to escape your problems, you should have some solutions (best way or not).

Solving the problem is the best way not the only way. So option B does not follow.

There is a possibility; may be we have the solution with the problem, we can find it; so the second option is good and the first option is true because if we do not fight with problem then we fill same.
