D Correct answer
Explanation

PROCLIVITY means a natural tendency, inclination, or preference for something. DISINCLINATION means a lack of enthusiasm, reluctance, or aversion toward something. These represent opposing attitudes - proclivity is being drawn toward something while disinclination is being pulled away or opposed to it. Anguish and debacle are unrelated, and gone astray is not an antonym.
