Explanation:

Alright, let’s size this up, point by point:

- "Only a few tea is coffee": Some tea is coffee, most isn’t.

- "All tea are juice": If it’s tea, it’s definitely also juice.

- "Some juice are milk": There’s some overlap between juice and milk.

Now, the conclusions:

- I. "Some milk being coffee is a possibility."

- Since some juice is milk, and some tea is coffee (plus all tea is juice), there’s a possible overlap where milk is also coffee. This makes sense.

- II. "All juice being coffee is a possibility."

- This one goes too far. Only a few tea is coffee, and while all tea is juice, not all juice can be coffee—there’s no way to stretch the original statements to make every bit of juice also be coffee.

Option rundown:

- 1, Only I follows: ...yeah, that checks out.

- 2, Only II follows: Nah.

- 3, Either I or II follows: Doesn’t apply here.

- 4, Both I and II follow: Hard no.

- 5, Neither I nor II follows: No way.

The right option is 1, Only I follows.
