The meaning of the sentence is that you have an object in the living room. You have it placed somewhere in this room hence it isn't being held in your hands. So B is wrong and the correct answer is A. Did I make it clear? If not tell me :)

Because hold here means 'keep'. It's true that you have it, but you actually keep it there.
