The correct answer is B, because a Scrum Master is not the same thing as a traditional PM (Project Manager). The Scrum Guide states that ''the Scrum Master is responsible for promoting and supporting Scrum as defined in the Scrum Guide. Scrum Masters do this by helping everyone understand Scrum theory, practices, rules, and values.'' Therefore, a Scrum Master is not a manager, but a servant-leader and a coach for the Scrum Team and the organization.

This is tricky! I remember some overlap in responsibilities, but I think the Scrum Master’s role is more about collaboration. I’ll go with B too.

I thought they were similar at first, but I recall that Scrum Masters are more about coaching and supporting the team. So, I guess it’s B?

I’m not entirely sure, but I feel like there are key differences in their roles. I might have seen a practice question that highlighted this.

I think I remember that Scrum Masters focus more on facilitating the team rather than managing tasks like a traditional PM. So, I’m leaning towards B.
