Answer:

The bolded words are an adjective clause.

Step-by-step explanation:

The subordinate clause above is a relative clause as it modifies the noun "year". This is a restrictive adjective clause, which means that if it was removed, the meaning of the sentence would be altered (see a). As you can see, the clause is essential for the meaning of the sentence to be complete.

a) *Is this the year ?
