An adjective clause is recognized by the following criteria:
1) contains subject and verb
2) begins with relative pronoun or relative adverb - in this case, relative pronoun (that)
3) It functions as an adjective that answers the questions: what kind? how many? which one? - in this case, the question is: which one is the least expensive?

The adjective clause will follow only two patterns:
1) Relative pronoun or adverb + subject + verb
2) Relative pronoun as subject + verb

In this case, the adjective clause followed the second pattern: "that" is the relative pronoun as subject and "was" as the verb.
