What will happen as a result of this change?

Refer to the exhibit. STP has been implemented in the network. Switch SW_A is the root switch for the default VLAN. To reduce the broadcast domain, the network administrator decides to split users on the network into VLAN 2 and VLAN 10. The administrator issues the command spanning-tree vlan 2 root primary on switch SW_A. What will happen as a result of this change?

SW_A was initially root bridge for default VLAN (VLAN1), therefore the right option is that it remains root for VLAN1 while becoming root for VLAN 2. It is the wording that may confuse you.
