Agora que já dei as respostas vou explicar o motivo pelas quais as usei.

O exercício limita nas palavras: mine, yours, his, hers, ours, theirs.

❓Mas por que não pode ser my, your, his, her, our, their?

Então, é disso que vim falar. Esses últimos que citei usa o substantivo logo em seguida. Por exemplo, na primeira seria:

No, it's my book.(E tá certo!)

O que num contexto é desnecessário já que sabemos do que estamos falando. Isso acontece com todos os outros.

Na última por exemplo:

Yes, It's their SUV.

Agora que estamos resolvidos... Tchau!

Espero ter ajudado!
