option A is correct
Those with strong intermolecular forces will have high melting and boiling points. The hydrogen bond is stronger intermolecular forces. 
As branching increases boiling point decreases. Propan-1-ol has highest boiling point because propan-1-ol contain H-bonding in their structure.
