Harikirat: that is NOT correct
The right answers is, imho this statement: 'Eliot dind't eat at least on vegetable at dinner'

Answer 12

i do not agree with this because it implies that he ate at least one vegetable which does not fit the given statement that says "ate all the vegetables"

Answer 13

You should learn what a negation is.....there are rules for negating statements.
To make it more comprehensible, let's rephrase the statement like this: For every vegetable at dinner, it is true that eliot ate it.
Now the negation is obviously, There was at least one vegetable Eliot didn't eat
