The correct answer is (C) The boiling points remain constant down the group. Group 18 elements have very low boiling points because they are gases at room temperature and pressure. However, within the group, the boiling points do not show any significant trend and remain relatively constant. Hence option C is the correct answer.

Option (A) is incorrect because the boiling points do not increase down the group. Hence option A is incorrect.

Option (B) is incorrect because the boiling points do not decrease down the group. Hence option B is incorrect.

Option (D) is incorrect because the boiling points do not follow an irregular trend down the group. Hence option D is incorrect.
