Final answer:

During the winter solstice, the Northern Hemisphere receives the fewest direct rays from the Sun.


Explanation:

The Northern Hemisphere receives the fewest direct rays from the Sun during the winter solstice. During this time, the Earth's axis of rotation points away from the Sun, causing the Sun to rise the most south of east, move the lowest across the sky, and set the most south of west in the Northern Hemisphere.
