    Solution

    The sentence talks about the government providing help to airlines which offer services to smaller cities and towns. Both the highlighted words are incorrectly used as per this context; the first word needs to denote a positive meaning; only C follows this condition. A is incorrect as both the words do not fit in the given context. B is incorrect for the same reason as A. C is correct as both the words are capable of replacing the highlighted words and making the sentence meaningful. D is incorrect as both the words cannot make the sentence meaningful or grammatically correct. C is the right answer. Intrinsic - inherent.
