(B) benzylic halide is a compound in which the halogen atom is bonded to an $sp^3$ hybridized carbon atom that is directly attached to an aromatic ring (benzene ring). In $1-$chloro$-2-$phenylbutane $(CH_3-CH_2-CH(C_6H_5)-CH_2Cl)$,the chlorine atom is attached to a carbon atom that is not directly bonded to the benzene ring. Therefore,it is not a benzylic halide.
