Thanks for your questions,
Your question was –  What do the lines on both the sides of a roman number and a bar on the op indicate?
Your correct answer is- a

Now read this explanation for more clarifications:

Additional horizontal lines on each side of a roman number along with a bar on top of
that number imply hundreds of thousands. This means 100*100, which is equal to
100000.
Hence, the correct answer is option a.
