What do you mean by a base in a chemical reaction?

A base is a chemical species that donates electrons, accepts protons, or releases hydroxide (OH-) ions in aqueous solution. A base is a molecule or ion able to accept a hydrogen ion from an acid.

A strong base completely dissociates into its ions in water. Bases react vigorously with acids and organic matter. Bases react in predictable ways with pH indicators.

A base substance is  a solution that has a pH level of more than 7.  Bases react with acids to form salts which is called neutralization reaction.

Among these  since sodium chloride is not a base, hence option(b) is correct.
