The word that identifies the most negative connotation is 'brat.'

Answer: Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Connotation is an idea that implies the word, other than its explicit meaning. Connotations can be either positive or negative. Positive connotation is the one that stimulate pleasant feelings, negative one on the other hand makes a person feel dejected.

Ashley was a bit of a brat. Here ‘brat’ is a negative connotation which signifies a spoilt child, the one who behaves badly. This word evokes an unpleasant feeling into the mind of a person, and which is why a negative connotation.
