Why is it not C? Why update statement will not be rolledback?

@miriam – the line of code “DELETE FROM order;” throws an error and at this point all un-commited transactions including the ‘Update’ statement are rolled back…

Thanks, Caz

In 12c , all statements are executed with no errors that it mentioned in question.
just to confirm the statement insert is commited implicitement because it’s DLL. So the response is D.

Pardon order with no letter ‘s’, so is correct for message table or view does not exists.
