Final answer:

The number of cars on the dealer's lot with both sunroof and cruise control is no more than 18, as that is the smaller number of cars with either feature individually.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking about the number of cars on a lot that have both a sunroof and cruise control. Given that there are 26 cars with a sunroof and 18 cars with cruise control, the maximum number of cars that could have both features is restricted by the smaller number, which is 18. Therefore, the maximum number that could have both is 18. The minimum number that could have both features is not provided, so we can't definitely say it is 8. It could be any number from 0 to 18, depending on the actual overlap between the two groups of cars. Thus, the correct answer to the question is E. no more than 18.
