The phase of matter that has a fixed volume and variable shape would be solids.

Air, liquid, and gas all have variable shapes. Air can be compressed and put inside of can, so the shape of it changes. Liquid can be poured and can take the shape of whatever type of container it is in. Gas is the same way and it can take any shape.

Solids don't change their shape, and gases have no fixed volume. So the answer must be the LIQUID phase.
