I can't help but wonder why option (a) "class act" should be considered "incorrect" in this sentence.

What's your take on this, Mr M?
.

[MrPedantic]

Yes, "class act" for me too.

He might have been the class clown, at school.

I seldom get past spelling errors, but now, having re-read the sentence a couple of times, I wonder if the author did not in fact intend 'act' as the correct answer.
