B Correct answer
Explanation

Electric field is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction. The direction of an electric field at any point is defined as the direction of the force that would be exerted on a positive test charge placed at that point. A scalar quantity only has magnitude (like temperature or mass), but no direction.
