The question tests your understanding of future perfect continuous tense.
Future perfect continuous tense is used to describe an action that will be in progress for a period of time before a specific point in the future. The structure is: will/shall + have + been + present participle (verb + -ing).

The sentence requires a verb tense that indicates an action completed over a period of time, ending at a specific point in the future (next Monday).

Let's analyze the options:
Option A: will have - This is the future perfect tense. It indicates the completion of an action by a specific time in the future. It doesn't show the duration of the action. It would be correct in a sentence like: "By next Monday, he will have finished his work." This is incorrect because the sentence indicates the action is ongoing.
Option B: shall have - This is very similar to "will have," but "shall" is less common in modern English, particularly in American English. The same logic as Option A applies here. It’s also grammatically incorrect in this context.
Option C: will have been - This is the correct answer. "Will have been staying" perfectly expresses an action (staying) that will have been in progress for a duration (three weeks) before a specific point in the future (next Monday).
Option D: shall have been - Similar to Option B, this is less common and grammatically incorrect for this sentence. The same logic as Option C and its grammatical limitations apply here.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option C: will have been. The complete sentence is: "By next Monday he will have been staying at my uncle's house for three weeks."
