The correct answer is "viste" because the question is asking for a specific time in the past ("¿A qué hora... ayer?"), which requires the use of the preterite tense in Spanish to indicate a completed action. "Veías" is in the imperfect tense, which is used for habitual actions or to describe ongoing situations in the past, not for specific, completed actions.
