(a) Wrong, because field lines must be normal to a conductor.

(b) Wrong, because field lines can only start from a positive charge. It cannot start from a negative charge,

(c) Right, because every individual field line is always repelling each other. Also, the electrostatic field lines always emerge from a positive charge and finish on a negative charge. Thus, the field lines shown in a given figure represent the electrostatic field lines.

(d) Wrong, because field lines cannot intersect each other,

(e) Wrong, because electrostatic field lines cannot form closed loops.
