Confidence intervals for a location parameter of a shifted exponential

Let X1,X2,…,XnX_1,X_2,\dots,X_n be independent and identically distributed random variables with the probability density function

f(x∣θ)={e−(x−θ),if x≥θ,0otherwise,f(x\mid\theta)=\begin{cases}e^{-(x-\theta)},&\text{if }x\ge\theta,\\0&\text{otherwise,}\end{cases}

where θ∈R\theta\in\mathbb R is the unknown parameter. Further, let Y=min⁡(X1,X2,…,Xn)Y=\min(X_1,X_2,\dots,X_n). Which of the following are confidence intervals for θ\theta with the confidence coefficient (1−α)(1-\alpha), where α∈(0,1)\alpha\in(0,1)?
