A linear production possibility frontier (PPF) means that resources can be shifted between soybeans and corn production at a constant rate. Choices A, C, and D are all possible combinations on or within the PPF, given the information. However, B is not possible because producing 200 bushels of soybeans and 600 bushels of corn exceeds the production capabilities described, violating the constraints of the linear PPF.
