Why each option
The client will contact the DHCP server at 192.168.25.100 to renew its IP address lease.
192.168.25.103 is not identified as the DHCP server's address for renewal.
192.168.25.1 is commonly used as a default gateway address, not typically the DHCP server itself unless specifically configured and not the designated correct answer here.
During the DHCP lease renewal process, a client typically unicasts a DHCP Request message directly to the DHCP server that originally provided its current IP address lease, which in this case is 192.168.25.100.
192.168.25.254 is not identified as the DHCP server's address for renewal.
