Option 1 : Only conclusion I follows

Concept:

1. Only a few is a conditional statement which means only a certain part. For eg. if the statement is only a few A is B means only a specific part of the A is B and the remaining part of the A is not B.

a) Only a few - means only "some" not "all".

b) "Few" is same as "Some".

c) Only "A is B" is same as "all B are A".

2. In this case following conclusions:

All A being B is a possibility will be false.
All B being A is a possibility will be true.
Some A are not B is true.
Some B are not A is false.
Some A are B is true.

We can say that it is a conditional statement which is a combination of some and some_not both.

The least possible Venn diagram for the given statements is as follows,

I. Some brave are not crazy → True (Only few homo sapiens are crazy, so some homo sapiens are not crazy and all homo sapiens are Brave. So, some brave are)

II. All crazy are homo sapiens → False, (as only few homo sapiens are crazy, so it is possible but not definite true. hence false)

Hence, Only conclusion I follows
