  Answer :

  Option D

  Explanation:

  Although if we have deep look on line chart the nwe can judge that it was in year 2000
  Lets also solve it,
  
  For 1997 = (139000 - 119000) = 20000
  For 1998 = (120000 - 99000) = 21000
  For 1999 = (141000 - 100000) = 41000
  For 2000 = (128000 - 78000) = 50000
  For 2001 = (120000 - 107000) = 13000
  For 2002 = (159000 - 148000) = 11000
  
  Clearly the difference was maximum in year 2000.
