During a Spontaneous Chemical Reaction, It Is Found That $\Delta$ S_sys" < 0

During a spontaneous chemical reaction, it is found that " $\Delta$ S_sys" < 0. This means __________

A) " $\Delta$ S_surr" < 0 and its magnitude is < " $\Delta$ S_sys".
B) " $\Delta$ S_surr" < 0 and its magnitude is > " $\Delta$ S_sys".
C) " $\Delta$ S_surr" > 0 and its magnitude is < " $\Delta$ S_sys".
D) " $\Delta$ S_surr" > 0 and its magnitude is > " $\Delta$ S_sys".
E) an error has been made, as S_sys > 0 by necessity for a spontaneous process.
