Correct answer and explanation
Correct answer: Is not honesty the best policy?
Explanation: ✅ Correct Answer: B) Is not honesty the best policy? 📚 Explanation: To convert an assertive proverb or universal truth into an effective interrogative sentence, the negative-interrogative structure is traditionally used. This stylistic method implies that the affirmative fact is already widely accepted by everyone. By asking "Is not honesty the best policy?", the statement forcefully reinforces the original premise. It maintains the core meaning of the original sentence while changing its structural form.
