I remember the definition, but I can't recall if "buy option" is an actual term. I think it's B, but I should double-check my notes.

I keep mixing up call and put options. I think a call option is the one that lets you buy, but I might be second-guessing myself.

Okay, let me think this through step-by-step. The question is asking about an instrument that gives the holder the right, but not the obligation, to buy the underlying asset. That sounds like the definition of a call option, so I'll select B.
