The correct answer is A)Locke believed that people are naturally reasonable, while Hobbes believed that people are naturally selfish.

It is known that Thomas Hobbes tends to defend the absolutism and John Locke is a hard critic of that position. It is also noticed that their respective differences continue all the way to their respective understanding of the State of Nature.
