Brief Explanations
A clause contains a subject and a predicate (a verb or verb phrase), while a phrase does not have both. The bolded group "Nancy’s suitcase was too large to fit in the overhead bin" has a subject ("Nancy’s suitcase") and a predicate ("was too large to fit in the overhead bin"), so it is a clause.
