Deciding which machine learning algorithm to use

I got this question on a test. I'm not clear what the right answer is because all three are classification algorithms:

You have a ride sharing service where people can select their rides online based on price and time. A driver can transport more than 1 person at a time. You have information on the last 4 million trips (basically who took which ride).

The goal is to predict which future rides will have more than 'X' number of passengers.

Which algorithm would you NOT use:

A) Logistic Regression B) Naive Bayes C) Support Vector Machine D) None of these

Any ideas? I'm really interested in the thought process here.

It depend, but with respect to these information, the answer is D, Because you face with regression problem(more than 'X'), and A,B,C can use for regression problems(although naive base regression is not very popular)
