The correct choice is (c) Low pressure & high temperature

The best I can explain: Ideal gas is based on the assumptions of kinetic theory of gases(KTG). At low pressure and high temperature the intermolecular forces become less significant and the size of molecules becomes less as compared to separation between them. These are two postulates of KTG and hence in these conditions real gas behavior is similar to that of ideal gases.
