Correct Answer: Only conclusion I follows


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

Let's analyse the conclusions –
Conclusion (I): Some creative people are intelligent – Based on the given statement, all intelligent people are creative. From this, it can be inferred that some creative people are also intelligent. So, this conclusion follows.
Conclusion (II): All creative people are intelligent – Based on the given statement, all intelligent people are creative. But not all creative people need to be also intelligent. Some creative people may or may not be intelligent. Therefore, this conclusion does not follow.

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