The answer would be Biased.

The reason why is because under the circumstances these students would be influenced to say that the food taste's good because there are teachers around them and they feel as if they don't want to get in trouble.

A biased question is when the person asking the question influences the person to answer in a way they like.

A unbiased question is when the question doesn't make affect the readers Decision in any way.
Hope this helps <3
