C Correct answer
Explanation

PUT_LINE in UTL_FILE package writes text to a file and automatically appends a line terminator (newline character) after each call. PUT writes without any terminator, while PUTF is for formatted output without automatic line termination. NEW_LINE is not a valid UTL_FILE procedure.
