Red
Explanation
Sulfuric acid is a strong acid. Litmus paper is a pH indicator used to test materials for acidity. Blue Litmus paper turns red under acidic conditions and is unchanged under alkaline or Neutral conditions. So, when supporting the strong acid nature of sulfuric acid, blue litmus paper should go red in color.
