Surface tension is defined as the tendency of elasticity of a liquid surface that makes it to achieve the possible least surface area. It depends upon the intermolecular forces present on the boundary of the surface of the compound and its contact.

n-butane is non-polar compound and it consist of only weak dispersion forces that are responsible for any contact with the surface.

In comparison to other given substances, n-butane has the weakest dispersion forces. Thus, n-butane has lowest surface tension.

in cartography, a contour line (often just called a "contour") joins points of equal elevation (height) above a given level, such as mean sea level. a contour map is a map illustrated with contour lines, for example a topographic map, which thus shows valleys and hills, and the steepness or gentleness of slopes.
