    Option A is correct as the forward reaction is exothermic so by increasing temperature the reaction shift backward means concn of reactant increases,means more product favoured so rate constant of forward reaction increases .... Similarly as the forward reaction is exothermic so the backward reaction must be endothermic...so again by increasing temp the reaction shift towards product side,means more reactant favoured...so rate constant of backward reaction increases
