In the theory of production and cost, a firm aims to minimize its average total cost to maximize its profits. The average total cost is the total cost per unit of output. When the marginal cost curve cuts the average total cost curve at its lowest point, the firm achieves the lowest possible average cost per unit of output. This point is also known as the point of minimum efficient scale. Therefore, the correct answer is the "lowest point".
