The correct answer is:

C. backward bending supply curve

As wage rates increase, workers may initially be motivated to work more hours (positive relationship). However, beyond a certain wage level, they might choose to work fewer hours because they can maintain their desired income with less work and value leisure time more. This change in behavior causes the labour supply curve to bend backward at higher wage levels.
