This is database basics, and wouldn't recommend proceeding much further until you understand more thoroughly what a database is, especially a relational one.
I'd recommend this short video (not mine) to start.

Hi @ManasaReddyY ,

Correct Answer is B

B. A column is one field and a record is one row

* In ServiceNow (and in relational databases generally):
* A column = a field (e.g., sys_id, name, created_on).
* A record = a row (one complete set of field values for a specific entry).
