B Correct answer
Explanation

Equation I: 15x² - 46x + 35 = 0 factors to (5x - 7)(3x - 5) = 0, giving x = 7/5 = 1.4 or x = 5/3 ≈ 1.67. Equation II: 4y² - 15y + 14 = 0 factors to (4y - 7)(y - 2) = 0, giving y = 7/4 = 1.75 or y = 2. For x = 1.4, x < y (both y values are 1.75, 2). For x = 1.67, x < y (both y values). Therefore X < Y always, making B correct.
