Since the line on which segment AB is reflected is x = 1 then the rule for this reflection will be


(x,y)\rightarrow(-x+2\cdot1,y)=(-x+2,y)

Then, the coordinates of the segment that is reflections of segment AB with respect to the line x = 1 will be


\begin{gathered} A(-4,3)\rightarrow(-(-4)+2,3)=(4+2,3)=(6,3) \\ B(-1,1)\rightarrow(-(-1)+2,1)=(1+2,1)=(3,1) \end{gathered}

And the segment with these coordinates is EF


\begin{gathered} E(6,3) \\ F(3,1) \end{gathered}

Therefore, the correct answer is b. EF.
