Answer

Brief Explanations:

A prepositional phrase starts with a preposition and ends with a noun, pronoun, gerund, or clause. "To be or not to be" is an infinitive - not a prepositional phrase. "Off the road", "in the basement", "under the surface" start with prepositions "off", "in", "under" respectively and end with nouns "road", "basement", "surface". "To fix the flat tire" is an infinitive phrase.

Answer:

I drove my car off the road to fix the flat tire. (off the road) We took cover in the basement during the thunderstorm. (in the basement) We strapped on our goggles so we could see the fish under the surface. (under the surface)
