I'm going with A. A structural break in the dependent variable is unlikely to be a direct cause of these statistical problems.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. Maybe C? Omitting a relevant variable could cause all sorts of problems.

I think the answer is B. A high positive correlation between two explanatory variables doesn't cause autocorrelation or heteroskedasticity.
