The correct answer is: The proton will continue to move with velocity v along the axis
The force on a charged particle in magnitude field

F=qv×B

The proton is moving along the axis of solenoid. Magnetic field inside the solenoid is parallel to the axis of solenoid.

v B

F=qvBsinθ

θ=0

F=0

   The proton will continue to move with velocity along the axis.
