ii) Ali went to X by air

It can be thought of as a trick question, given how easy it was and the heavy marks it held.

Part (i) cannot be deciphered with the given information.
it can deciphered without any doubt if you apply the rules of chronology.

The three boys, ali, akbar and nasir along with the mode of transport and destinations are in chronological order. Shahbaz who should have been placed on number two has been placed at number 5 just to ditch the candidates. If we place shahbaz on number two, everything will become clear.
thus Ahmad went to v by bus.
let me place all in chronological order
a. Ahmed went to v by bus
b. Shahbaz went to w by train
c. Ali went to x by air
d. Akbar went to y by car
e. Nasir went to z by boat
