The sentence in option (b) has an error. In the sentence, the use of the preposition 'on' is incorrect as it means 'physically in contact with and supported by (a surface)' and instead the preposition 'in' (as an integral part of a larger group) is the appropriate preposition that should be used in the sentence.
Hence, the correct answer is option (b).
Note:

Examples
I. The teacher scolded the child for being late.
II. We're going to a party.
