Our blood groups are composed of two "letters", one from both parets.

People with Blood group B can have the type BB or B0 (IBi).

if they both have a blood group B0 (that is IBi) they can both give their children the "0" part of their blood group, and the child will have a 0 blood group.

The answer is

c. both are IBi (that is both are B0).
