A Correct answer
Explanation

A first-order all-pass filter has the transfer function (S-a)/(S+a) where 'a' is a real positive constant. The given form (S-a)/(S+b) represents an all-pass filter when a = b. All-pass filters pass all frequencies equally but introduce a phase shift that varies with frequency.
