• a) She was not going to call him again.
  
  The exercise calls for the mastery of reported speech, which is used for outlining speech as reported after it was uttered by the speaker. In reported speech, it's necessary that the tense used in the original utterance be set one tense back. So, if she told him" I am not seeing so and so again, it means that she told him something in the past, so we use the past tense: she was not seeing so and so again.
  
  EM Reported speech - fala indireta-, o tempo verbal é anterior ao do discurso original. Logo, ela disse que nao ia mais ligar para ele. É importante perceber que o modo como reported speech funciona no inglês é diferente de como ele é usado no portugues brasileiro.
