Answer is B imo..
1) y<x..
statement is true for y is -ve and X positive..
statemetn is false for y is +Ve and X is positive.
2) one of them is negative and other one is positive..
modx - mod y alwys gives the difference between the absolute values..
where as mod ( x-y) gives more values as one of them is -ve
take x = -1, y = 2.... mod (x-y) gives 3..
take x= 2, y = -1.. mod(x-y) gives again 3..
hence B
