Hey might be a bit late but:

The answer is C as the graph is showing the growth rate of GDP rather than the size of the GDP. The graph is positive 2013-2015 which means for those quarters GDP was growing (even if the growth rate was slower than before it is still growing). Therefore, after 2 years of constant growth, the GDP will be biggest in 2015.

Hope this makes sense!
