"Project Management" seems too broad for this question. I feel like the focus should be more on how to handle changes specifically.

This looks straightforward to me. Since we need to provide a cost estimate, the "Plan the Release" process goal seems like it would have the most relevant techniques for that. I'll go with option B.
