Going by options:
(a) Minimum value of P(AB) is the higher of P(A) and P(B) i.e. \dfrac { 2 }{ 3 }  and maximum value is 1. So, (a) is true.
(b) Maximum intersection of P(ABˉ) is the minimum of P(A) and P(\bar { B } ) i.e. minimum of  \dfrac { 1 }{ 2 }  and \dfrac { 1 }{ 3 } \dfrac { 1 }{ 3 } . So, (b) is true.
(c) P(A)+P(B)=12+23=76. Hence, P(A\cap B)\ge \dfrac { 7 }{ 6 } -1=\dfrac { 1 }{ 6 } 
Again, maximum intersection of P(AB) is the minimum of P(A) and P(B) i.e. minimum of  \dfrac { 1 }{ 2 }  and \dfrac { 2 }{ 3 } \dfrac { 1 }{ 2 } . So, (c) is true.
(d) Maximum intersection of P(BAˉ) is the minimum of P(B) and P(\bar { A } ) i.e. minimum of  \dfrac { 2 }{ 3 }  and \dfrac { 1 }{ 2 } \dfrac { 1 }{ 2 } .
Again, P(Aˉ)+P(B)=12+23=76. Hence, P(\bar {A}\cap B)\ge \dfrac { 7 }{ 6 } -1=\dfrac { 1 }{ 6 } . So, (d) is true.
Hence, (a), (b), (c), (d) are correct.
