B Correct answer
Explanation

If the statement "Everything I tell you is a lie" is true, then the statement itself must be a lie (because it's included in "everything"), creating a contradiction. Therefore the statement must be a lie - at minimum, this statement itself is a lie, though other things told might be true.
