If they're locked out of their house, they should call me and I will let them in. (C).

They're, their, and there are all homophones or words that are pronounced the same. However they all have different meanings.

  • They're is the contracted form of "they are."
  • Their indicates possession.
  • There indicates location.

Therefore, we can replace they're with they are.

  • If they're locked out of... is the same as If they are locked out of...

They are in possession of the house, so it is their house.
