Answer:

The answer is biased I just took the test and unbiased is wrong.

Explanation:

A unbiased answer would be a population at random, not a specific place like the mall.

I think the correct answer would be unbiased. The sampling that was done by the company is unbiased since they did not consider any factor while making a survey in the mall. They could get data from anyone without knowing the status of the customer.
