(a) The reflexivity must hold FOR ALL subsets of a set, including ∅
Hence, since there exists a subset that doesn't satisfy reflexivity, the relation as a whole cannot be reflexive.
The relation is symmetric: but it's symmetric because IF x∩y≠∅, then y∩x=x∩y≠∅.
The transitivity, too, to find a counterexample to the property: We want to show that if for any subsets x,y,w⊆Rx,y,w⊆R xRy and yRw,yRw, it follows that xRw. xRy means x∩y≠∅. (The intersection of subset x and subset y is non-empty.) And yRw means y∩w≠∅. It does not necessarily follow that xRw, that is, there are counterexamples to x∩w≠∅.
(b) Proper subset relation is not reflexive (same point discussed in (a) for reflexivity)
It is symmetric (Refer symmetric point of (a))
It is not transitive
