For a gray surface, emissivity ε is wavelength-independent and $E_{\lambda,g}=\epsilon E_{\lambda,b}$, with 0 < ε < 1. On logarithmic axes this is a constant downward vertical shift: the curves have identical shape and the same peak wavelength, with the gray curve always below the black curve. Graph D satisfies those conditions.
