A,C Correct answer
Explanation

In Java, Error is a direct subclass of Throwable, not Exception. Error represents serious problems like OutOfMemoryError or StackOverflowError that applications should not attempt to catch or recover from, as they typically indicate fatal JVM-level issues. Option B is incorrect because Error and Exception are siblings under Throwable.
