B.
It will be propagated in VTP updates.

Explanation:
Recall that the whole idea behind MST is the capability to map multiple VLANs to a smaller number
of STP instances. Inside a region, the actual MST instances (MSTIs) exist alongside the IST. Cisco
supports a maximum of 16 MSTIs in each region. IST always exists as MSTI number 0, leaving
MSTI 1 through 15 available for use. MST must be manually configured on the all switch belongs to same MST region.
