Correct Answer: Neither conclusion I nor conclusion II follows


Solution : The possible Venn diagram according to the given statements is as follows –

Let's analyse the conclusions —
Conclusion I: Some boys are managers – From the Venn diagram, there is no direct relation between boys and managers. So, no definite relation can be drawn between them. So, this conclusion does not follow.
Conclusion II: Some managers are boys – From the Venn diagram, there is no direct relation between boys and managers. So, no definite relation can be drawn between them. So, this conclusion does not follow.

So, neither Conclusion I nor Conclusion II follows. Hence, the third option is correct.
