Answer:Beth’s claim is a counterclaim.
Explanation:
What is a counterclaim?
It a claim out forward by someone to offset the claim made first against them by the other part. Like this example above when someone sues you of having breached a contract and you sue them back to say they were the ones who had breached the contract this a counterclaim, you rebut the claim put against you.
So a person claims back to the person who has made a claim to them.
