Correct answer
ABoth Statement I and Statement II are true.

Step-by-step explanation

Statement I is true as susceptibility of ferromagnetic and paramagnetic materials is inversely related to temperature.

Statement II is true as because of orbital motion of electrons the diamagnetic material is able to oppose external magnetic field.
