    C Only II and III follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Only I and III follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E All follow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Some rows are lines(I) ⇒ Probable conclusion ⇒ All rows may be lines (I). Hence, conclusion I follows. Some rows are lines(I) + All lines are parallels(A) ⇒ Some rows are parallels(I) + All parallels are numbers(A) ⇒ Some rows are numbers(I). Hence, conclusion II follows. All parallels are numbers (A) ⇒ Probable conclusion ⇒ All numbers may be parallels (A). Hence, conclusion III follows.
