The answer is A but i would like to add this
I have tried to do a 12c install with the swap file set at 0, 64Mb and 1G.
you get the error but click continue on the first two attempts and the software will install ok but when it comes to installing the the database it errors out both times, unable to start different processes.
so the question is, are you just installing the software if so the answer is A, if you are also installing a datbase then it is C.
as the question says nothing about the database you have to presume that you are just doing a softeware install.
C
As wontsay states, the “instance” can’t be started, so “C” is more correct.
