Hmmm!

In that first question -- "A police officer takes an official report of a crime that is later shown to not have occurred. Accorrding to UCR regulations, this crime is not considered to ..." -- the second "not" (the one in bold) makes this question tricky.

Which one do you think makes best sense?
