Answer:

C. Point A lies on ray BC

Explanation:

Points A and C can be connected by a segment which would be a measure of the distance between the points. Locating point B between AC, makes the three points lying on segment AC.

A ray extends from a point to infinity, a line extend to infinity on both sides, while a segment is known to have two endpoints. Therefore, points AC are the end points of the segment AC, and point B between this segment confirms that point B lies on the segment AC. Therefore, Point A lies on ray BC is not correct.
