Detailed Solution

All spontaneous processes are those where total entropy i.e. system + surroundings increases
Thus, (a), (c), (d) are true.
Basically, time moves in the direction where entropy of universe increases.
Now, in (b), we have a closed system, i.e. even through matter can’t move into or out of system, energy can.
Clearly, (b) can also be true if entropy of surroundings increase more than decrease of entropy of system.
