Confidence coefficient of an interval based on X/θX/\theta

Let XX be a random sample of size 11 from the probability density function

f(x∣θ)={3θ3(θ−x)2,0<x<θ,0,otherwise.f(x\mid\theta)=\begin{cases}\dfrac3{\theta^3}(\theta-x)^2,&0<x<\theta,\\0,&\text{otherwise.}\end{cases}

If (X1−λ1,X1−λ2)\left(\dfrac X{1-\lambda_1},\dfrac X{1-\lambda_2}\right) is a confidence interval for θ\theta with confidence coefficient 1−α1-\alpha, where λi∈(0,1)\lambda_i\in(0,1), i=1,2i=1,2, λ1<λ2\lambda_1<\lambda_2, and α∈(0,1)\alpha\in(0,1), then which of the following statements is true?
