Suppose the Sun suddenly no longer had gravity. Which of these would most likely happen?

The Sun’s gravity provides the force that continually bends Earth’s path into an orbit. If that gravity suddenly disappeared, Earth would keep moving in the direction it was traveling at that moment instead of curving around the Sun, so it would fly off into space. It would not be pulled toward the Sun, and its orbit would no longer get larger or smaller because there would be no orbit around the Sun.
