Answer:

The correct options are 3 and 6.

Explanation:

The given expression is


(b-2c)(-3b+c)

Use distributive property to simplify the above product.


b(-3b+c)-2c(-3b+c)


-3b^2+bc+6bc-2c^2


-3b^2+7bc-2c^2

Therefore the simplified product has 3 terms, the simplified product has a degree of 2 and simplified product, in standard form, has exactly 2 negative terms.

So, options 3 and 6 are correct.
