No @Nikhil and @Kunal.
There is no clear distinction showing NO RELATION between pen n Jeep (where in statements they said no jeep is a pen or no Cars is a jeep or no Boxes is Car ????)
However Only conclusion 1 (not option) : Some cars are boxes) follows.
Because Statement depicts All boxes being Jeeps and some Cars are Jeeps.
Therefore Some cars are boxes.
Hope this helps.
Correct me If I'm Wrong!

I think A is correct because conclusion should fit in all aspects.
Talking about diagrams, well these are for possibilities with taking into consideration the statement thereof. So, in order to get the correct answer, it gotta be satisfying all the possibilities, otherwise, it is half the truth and half the wrong as well.
So, in my opinion, It got to be an option 'A'.
