Correct Answer:

The option in the sshd configuration file that permits only specific usernames to log in to a system is 'AllowUsers'. This option specifies that login is allowed only for those usernames that match a pattern listed with this keyword. By default, login is allowed for all usernames, but by using 'AllowUsers', you can restrict access to specific users.

sshd_config is not an option, its the ssh-server config file.AllowUsers is the option to go if you want to specify some users to have access.
