A question about line-item veto?

Which of the following is true regarding the "line-item veto?"
It is a special veto used by the President after the Congress has adjourned.
Presidents have had the power to use it since the early 1950s.
Though currently not allowed, it would allow the President to veto individual items within specific pieces of legislation.
It allows Presidents to kill pieces of legislation without formally exercising his power to veto.

3rd choice. There used to be a line item veto bill passed during the Clinton administration, but the US Supreme Court ruled it was unconstitutional.
