The labor force is comprise of people who are currently employed and unemployed. The rest—those who have no job and are not looking for one—are included as not in the labor force. Many who are not part of the labor force are still in school or are retired. So in the choices above, the answer is b. Lauren, who has retired and is not looking for work since she satisfies the definition of not in the labor force.
