$$\begin{aligned} & L_1=\left\{a^m b^m c^{m+n} \mid m, n \geq 1\right\} \\ & L_2=\left\{a^m b^n c^{m+n} \mid m, n \geq 1\right\} \end{aligned}$$

Which ONE of the following statements is CORRECT?

A
Both $L_1$ and $L_2$ are context-free languages.
B
$L_1$ is a context-free language but $L_2$ is not a context-free language.
C
$L_1$ is not a context-free language but $L_2$ is a context-free language.
