Explanation:

Audit User Account Management
This security policy setting determines whether the operating system generates audit events when the
following user account management tasks are performed:
A user account is created, changed, deleted, renamed, disabled, enabled, locked out, or unlocked.
A user account password is set or changed.
Security identifier (SID) history is added to a user account.
The Directory Services Restore Mode password is set.
Permissions on accounts that are members of administrators groups are changed.
Credential Manager credentials are backed up or restored.
This policy setting is essential for tracking events that involve provisioning and managing user accounts.

No, the modification of user accounts happens in the AD database which is replicated among domain controllers

A, no reason the link it to the member server since the accounts are “stored” on a DC

The accounts should be in AD which would be on a DC and not a member server.

to apply to member server you wouldn’t use domain controller OU so B should be right
