Respuesta

(b) a bill vetoed by the President and approved afterward by a one-third vote of both houses, (c) a bill held by the President for fifteen days without signature while Congress is in session.

Explicación

This question is about the legislative process in the United States. The legislative process involves several steps, including the drafting of a bill, its passage in both the House and the Senate, and its approval by the President. If the President vetoes a bill, it can still become law if two-thirds of both the House and the Senate vote to override the veto. If the President neither signs nor vetoes a bill within ten days (excluding Sundays) while Congress is in session, the bill automatically becomes law. If Congress adjourns during this period and the President has not signed the bill, it does not become law, a process known as a pocket veto. Therefore, options (b) and (c) will become law, while option (a) will not.
