Let's analyse the conclusions – Conclusion (I): All trucks are white – From the Venn diagram, there is no direct relation between white and truck. So, no definite relation can be drawn. Therefore, this conclusion does not follow.

So, this conclusion follows.
So, the only conclusion II follows. Hence, the first option is correct.
