Dear Student,

"Lonely" is an emotional state. It is a kind of sadness or melancholy. It is usually applied to people. "I am lonely" means not only that I am alone, but also that I would like to have some companionship.

"Lone" is a simple statement of fact. It means something is isolated, single, separate, or unaccompanied.
Required answer is option (B).
