Given below are two statements: 
Assertion (A): It is not possible for a system, unaided by an external agency to transfer heat from a body at a lower temperature to another at a higher temperature.
Reason (R): It is not possible to violate the second law of thermodynamics.
  
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
