I'm a bit confused about C; I thought the Product Owner was mainly responsible for the Acceptance Criteria in Scrum, not the Scrum Master and Team.

I remember practicing a question similar to this, and I think B is true since traditional project management does require formal change processes.

I think option A sounds right because the Project Manager usually does define those expectations, but I'm not entirely sure if it's always the case.
