The correct answer is B. over fifty years old.

The phrase “on the wrong side of fifty” is a colloquialism that means “over fifty years old.” It is often used in a humorous or lighthearted way to refer to someone who is getting older.

The other options are incorrect because:

  • A. not yet fifty is the opposite of what the phrase means.
  • C. a sinner is not a literal interpretation of the phrase.
  • D. old and haggard is a negative way to describe someone who is over fifty.
