// /* This is a */ First Rate Program
//**// This is a //**// First Rate Program //**//
//* This is a //*// First Rate Program //*//
/* This is a //*// First Rate Program //*//

Answer 1

The line that does NOT consist of a valid, though boastful comment is '/* This is a */ First Rate Program'.

Step-by-step explanation:

The line that does NOT consist of a valid, though boastful, comment is:

/* This is a */ First Rate Program

This line is not a valid comment because it starts with /* and ends with */ which makes it a comment in C++ or Java programming languages, but not a boastful comment.
