c) Couldn't possibly repay the kindness shown to him.
The line how shall I pay him back suggests that the speaker couldn't possibly repay the kindness shown to him.
The speaker did not know what would be equal to the act of kindness and genuinity that he encountered. Therefore he was not sure if he can give back just as much as he recieved and he is thinking that there is no justified way to pay him back because he ad done more than what the speaker deserved. Hence it's an interrogative sentence and it's also a positive statement made towards the listener. So it is not that he could not repay his debt, or not that he was sympathetic or selfish.
