The correct answer is B.
 
The fact that Mercutio recites a long speech to another character is enough to make it an example of a monologue.

He does not have to be alone on stage -- that would make it a soliloquy. By contrast, a monologue is simply a long speech spoken by a single character who is not alone on stage.

B

Explanation:

If he were alone, it would be a soliloquy. If it were a brief statement, it would be too short to have been a monologue.
