C. The opposite of hyperbole is an understatement. Hyperbole means exaggerated statements so the opposite would be understatement which means something being small or less important. Hope this helps!

Answer:

B

Explanation:

It wouldn't be A because a hyperbole is exaggeration.

It wouldn't be C because climax is almost the same as exaggeration.

It wouldn't be D because that just doesn't make sense.

That leaves B. It is an understatement because your aren't going overboard.
