What is Curie temperature? And what is retentivity?

If the given figure shows the relation between magnetic field ($B$ - along $y$-axis) and magnetic intensity ($H$ - along $x$-axis) of a ferromagnetic material,then the point that represents the coercivity of the material is

The figure illustrates how $B$,the magnetic flux density inside a sample of unmagnetised ferromagnetic material,varies with $B_0$,the external magnetic flux density in which the sample is kept. For the sample to be suitable for making a permanent magnet:
