Verified Correct Answer: Option B
Grammar & Contextual Explanation
The word "negation" means denial, contradiction, or refusal. The opposite of this would be agreement or harmony with something. To be in consonance with means to agree with or be in harmony with, which is the direct opposite of negation. To be in connection with does not directly oppose "negation" as one can be connected to something without agreeing with it.
