Options:
(A) Cousin
(B) Sister-in-law

Since the man is referring to his nephew, the nephew's parent has to be a sibling to the man. Now the last part says that the man's sister has no other sister and hence the brother-sister relationship is established between the man and his nephew's mother. Now the lady in the picture is the grandmother of the nephew and hence she is the mother of the man's sister. So the answer is: (C).
