The boy's mother is the sister of that girl's uncle. It doesn't specify that the boy's mother is the mother of that girl. Am I right?

Right answer should be cousin or brother, because it's not written whether father was only child or have a sister or another son. So, data is inappropriate.

My explanation is;
F+ means Father.
U+ means uncle ( i.e., Girls Uncle) or Father's Brother,
He means Boy. So let Boy =B+
F+_____U+

B+ ____Daughter (Girl).
So, the boy is related to the Girl is - Brother.
F+ means Father.
U+ means uncle ( i.e., Girls Uncle) or Father's Brother,

Read the question properly. The uncle is her father's brother for sure. If he were the mother's brother, it would be called materna uncle.
Now the father of the uncle
----> Grandfather ( father lineage)
His daughter means her aunt, who is the sister of her father and uncle.
Now her son would be her cousin brother.
There is no option. So the question is wrong. It should write maternal uncle instead of uncle to turn the answer into brother.
