B) Jason’s locked suitcase in the back seat

Step-by-step explanation:

The trunk, glovebox, and center counsel are all a part of the car, which Jason gave the officer consent to search.

However, his locked suitcase is not a part of the car and is his personal belonging, therefore, his consent did not approve the search of his suitcase.
