A Correct answer
Explanation

True is correct because this is a comma splice. The sentence 'I love eating biscuits, it is one of my favorite things' incorrectly joins two independent clauses with only a comma. 'I love eating biscuits' and 'it is one of my favorite things' are both complete sentences that should be separated by a period, semi-colon, or connected with a coordinating conjunction (and, but, or). A comma alone is insufficient.
