The correct usage in the context of given sentence is 'can be classified into' instead of 'can classify' into. "Can classify" means the people are the ones that are going to do the classification. Can be classified means that we are going to classify the people.
The statement would now read as:

Inhabitants of that locality can be classified into only two groups namely the poor and the very poor.

Hence, the correct option is option D.
