A
true
B
false
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Malcolm, however, was the rightful king, not Macbeth, because he was so named by his father, and he would be a good king because he is cunning, intelligent, and he cares about the people. Malcolm is loyal to his people and will not abuse his power like “devilish Macbeth” (IV. iii.

Detailed explanation-2: -Malcolm takes over as king and notes that order has been restored and that his intentions are good ("by the grace of Grace We will perform in measure, time, and place:” – Malcolm, Act 5.8 72–73). He invites everyone to his coronation.

Detailed explanation-3: -Character Analysis Malcolm If Macduff is the stereotypical revenger, Malcolm is the embodiment of all that is good in kingship, and this is seen particularly in Act IV, Scene 3, in which he tests the allegiance of Macduff. His testing of Macduff, although dramatically longwinded, is psychologically accurate.

Detailed explanation-4: -After Macduff kills Macbeth and avenges his family, Malcolm becomes the new king of Scotland.

Detailed explanation-5: -Malcolm is Duncan’s eldest son. He is declared as Duncan’s heir at the end of the opening battle, an event that Macbeth sees as an obstacle to his ambitions. Upon Duncan’s death, Malcolm and Donalbain flee from Scotland, fearing that they will suffer a fate similar to Duncan.
