C Correct answer
Explanation

The International Date Line roughly follows the 180° meridian of longitude, which is directly opposite the Prime Meridian (0°). While it zigzags to avoid dividing land areas and island groups, the 180° meridian represents its theoretical position. The 0°, 90°, and 100° meridians are all far from the Date Line.
