Each of the statements are insufficient on their own; we're looking for something concerning an expression with two variables, and each statement concerns only one of the variables.

Taken together, the statements are sufficient. If x^2 is divisible by 6, it is also divisible by all the factors of 6, including 3. The same reasoning applies to y^2. Since both x^2 and y^2 are divisible by 3, the difference between them is also divisible by 3, so the remainder is 0. Choice (C) is correct.
