A Correct answer
Explanation

Brazil is the only country through which both the Equator and the Tropic of Capricorn pass. The Equator crosses northern Brazil through the Amazon region, while the Tropic of Capricorn crosses southern Brazil near São Paulo. Ecuador lies entirely north of the Tropic of Capricorn, and Uruguay and Colombia are not intersected by both lines.
