**Question:**

Which three points in the figure are collinear?

**Diagram Description:**

The diagram is a parallelogram with additional lines and points inside it. Points A, B, C, D, E, F, and M are marked within the figure. Several arrows and dashed lines indicate intersections and extensions.

- **Points**: 
  - A is near the top left.
  - B is above the figure, placed on a vertical dashed line extending through E.
  - C is below the figure on the same vertical dashed line as B, directly underneath E.
  - D is along a line heading towards the bottom left.
  - E is at the intersection of the diagonal of the parallelogram and a vertical line.
  - F is near the top right.
  - M is on the same line as D, extending from B, E, and C.

- **Lines**:
  - Line j is a horizontal arrow extending through D and A.
  - Line k is a vertical arrow through B, E, and C.

**Answer Options:**

- ○ B, E, F
- ○ A, E, D
- ○ B, E, C
- ○ B, F, D

**Correct Answer:**
