The correct answer is B) Andrew Johnson.

Andrew Johnson became President after the assassination of President Lincoln.

Abraham Lincoln was assassinated on April 15, 1865. He was substituted by Andrew Jhonson, who became the 17th President of the United States. Jhonson (1808-1875) had a controversial presidency for the decisions he made that confronted him several times with the members of Congress. He was the first President to be impeached.
