The correct answer is: Material B
Material A is paramagnetic and Material B is ferromagnetic.

The susceptibility of material B is larger than A at given magnetic field because ferromagnetic material gets strongly magnetised and hence produces a larger intensity of magnetization in comparison to paramagnetic substance, therefore it is strongly magnetised.
