D Correct answer
Explanation

The key to this riddle lies in the phrase 'every single person' - which refers to unmarried people on board. The two survivors were a married couple, so technically they were not 'single persons'. This is a wordplay riddle that challenges you to think about language literally rather than conventionally.
