Answer 5

Blue.  Kind of an ugly 'neon', pastel blue.

Cyan is one of four colors in a printing color mode.  There's RGB (Red Green and Blue), that humans see the world in, CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black) that we use in professional printing because it produces more accurate color mixes, but tends to be a little faded looking, Grayscale (shades of gray) is what most people call a 'black and white' photo and Black and White, which is just two colors.
