Answer

Between $-x_m$ and $0$.

Work Step by Step

The object still has velocity at the time $A$, therefore, it cannot be at either $x_{m}$ or $-x_{m}$. The velocity is negative, so it must be traveling towards $-x_{m}$. Therefore, it can be concluded that the position must be between $-x_{m}$ and $0$.
