The figure shows three points $A, B$ and $C$ in a region of uniform electric field $E$. The line $A B$ is perpendicular and $B C$ is parallel to the field lines. Then,which of the following holds good? ($V_{A}, V_{B}$ and $V_{C}$ represent the electric potential at points $A, B$ and $C$,respectively)

• A
  $V_{A}=V_{B}=V_{C}$
• B
  $V_{A}=V_{B}>V_{C}$
• C
  $V_{A}=V_{B} < V_{C}$
• D
  $V_{A}>V_{B}=V_{C}$
