If any work of art exploits some of the musical characteristics of language, then it is a poem. A novel does not usually exploit the musical characteristics of language, but it may be a work of art. A symphony rarely involves language, but it may be a work of art, and may exploit the musical characteristics of sounds. A limerick is not art, but it may exploit some musical characteristics of language.

The stimulus supports the conclusion that if a novel is a work of art and exploits some of the musical characteristics of language, then it is a poem.

This answer is unsupported. We don’t know if a work of art must either be a poem, novel, or a symphony.

This answer is unsupported. We don’t know what types of works, if any, are not poems. In particular, the stimulus never indicates that rhyming is a necessary condition for poetry.

This answer is strongly supported. We know from the stimulus that any work of art that exploits at least some of the musical characteristics of language is a poem. We also know that meter and rhyme are musical characteristics of language.

This answer is unsupported. We don’t know what conditions are sufficient for a work to be a nonartistic type of poetry, or if that's even possible.

This answer is unsupported. We don’t know whether exploiting the musical characteristics of sound is necessary for a symphony to be art. We only know that symphonies are sometimes art and sometimes exploit the musical characteristics of sound.
