In C6H5OCH3, OCH3 does not sufficiently increase electron density on the ring. Recall that C6H5OH  undergoes coupling in weakly alkaline medium which converts C6H5OH to the more reactive C6H5O –. In options (b) and (c), presence of electron-withdrawing —  NO2 groups increases electrophilic character to such an extent that these diazonium cations can couple even with the compounds having weak electron-releasing groups. Option (d) undergoes coupling reaction easily because –  NMe2 is sufficiently electron-releasing.
