Answer: B.status offense

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because, a minor isn't committing a crime that is federal or civil action. One example of a status offense would be the underage drinking (which is 21 depending on where u live.) A civil offense would be like killing your neighbor (as a example)

Hope this helps and make sure to thank me!
