I. Some brushes are cupboards. → True (As, Some needles are brushes and All needles are cupboards → Some brushes are cupboards)

II. All threads are cupboards. → True (As, All threads are needles and All needles are cupboards → All threads are cupboards)

III. All brushes are threads. → False (As, All threads are needles and Some needles are brushes → Some brushes are threads)

Hence, only conclusions I and II follow.
