Given asnwer is wrong! Be careful!
Correct answers are as follows:
Box 1 - Azure Container Instances
"A container virtualizes the underlying OS and causes the containerized app to perceive that it has the OS." Source: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/overview/what-is-a-container/
Note: Virtual Machines virtualize underlying hardware - not the OS! - so that multiple operating system (OS) instances can run on the hardware.
Box 2 is Azure Virtual Machines
"Another application of the VM is to provide the property of machine independence. This form, called application (or process) virtualization, creates an abstracted environment (for an application), making it independent of its physical environment.
In addition to creating a portable environment in which to execute the object code, application virtualization provides an environment in which to isolate the VM from other applications running on the host."

Box 3 - Azure App Service
Box 4 - Azure Functions

Box 1 - Containers
Box 2 - Containers
Box 3 - Azure App Service
Box 4 - Azure Functions
** Each option can be used more than once or none at all.
Microsoft says Containers virtualize the OS so Box 1 has to be Containers. But they also provide the most portability.

Guys, my aswers with source:
Easy way to differentiate Vm's and Container:
* VM'S virtualize the HARDWARE
* CONTAINERS virtualize the OPERATING SYSTEM and his advantages are portabilty , performance and management capabilities.
Box 1 - Azure Cointainers Instances.
Box 2 - Azure Containers Instaces.
Box 3 - Azure App Services
Box 4 - Azure Functions

Reread the instructions. Answers can be used more than once. Azure Containers is the answer to both box 1 and 2.

Container - Virtualizes the OS.
Virtual Machine - Virtualize the hardware.
Box 1 - Should be Container.
Box 2 - Should be Container too.
Box 3 - Azure App Service
Box 4 - Azure Functions

I dont know why so many people ignore this part of question: "Each service may be used once, more than once, or not at all" In my opinion Violoncello answer is right. Virtual Machine is emulating hardware not software. Portable environment for app is also related to containers. VMs are not so portable.
Box 1 Virtual Machines - OS virtualization is exactly what a VM is
Box 2 Azure Container Instances - Containers are portable instances for virtual apps
Box 3 Azure App Services - Build deploy & scale web apps
Box 4 Azure Functions - serverless code
