C. If the liver stops secreting bile then lacteals, which are in the villi that line the small intestine, cannot absorb fats and fatty acids.

The correct answer is C. Lacteals are not able to absorb fats and fatty acids.

Lacteals are lymphatic capillaries capillaries which absorb fats and fatty acids in the villi of the small intestine. Lacteals are designed to absorb and transport large molecules such as fats and fatty acids. Bile emulsifies fat for its digestion, but in absence of bile fats will not digested into fatty acids therefore, lacteals  will not be able to absorb fats and fatty acids.
