  1. Compilation will succeed for all classes and interfaces.

  2. Compilation of class C will fail because of an error in line 2.

  3. Compilation of class C will fail because of an error in line 6.

  4. Compilation of class AImpl will fail because of an error in line 2.

Correct Option: C

AI Explanation

To answer this question, let's go through each option to understand why it is correct or incorrect:

Option A) Compilation will succeed for all classes and interfaces. This option is incorrect. The compilation will not succeed for all classes and interfaces because there are errors in the code.

Option B) Compilation of class C will fail because of an error in line 2. This option is incorrect. There is no error in line 2 of class C. Line 2 in class C is a valid method declaration that overrides the method in class B.

Option C) Compilation of class C will fail because of an error in line 6. This option is correct. Line 6 in class C is attempting to override the method execute() from class B, but the return type of the overridden method in class C is Object, which is not compatible with the return type String in class B. This will result in a compilation error.

Option D) Compilation of class AImpl will fail because of an error in line 2. This option is incorrect. There is no error in line 2 of class AImpl. Line 2 is a valid method implementation that matches the method declaration in interface A.

The correct answer is C. Compilation of class C will fail because of an error in line 6.
