The correct answer is option [A].

When slack of an activity is positive - it represents a situation where extra resources are available and the completion of the project is not delayed.

When slack of an activity is negative- it represents that a program falls behind schedule and additional resources are required to complete the project in time.

When slack of an activity is zero - the activity is critical and any delay in its performance will delay the completion of the whole project.
