I think C is correct.
There’s a limit to the number of groups you can have, and a limit to how many groups a user can be in. For more information, see Limitations on IAM Entities and Objects.
AWS allows you to request an increase to default IAM entity limits. To learn how to request a limit increase to these default limits, see AWS Service Limits in the Amazon Web Services General Reference documentation.
You cannot request an increase for the Groups an IAM user can be a member of
Yep, but there still be a limit, higher then default, but it will be limit.
C. You can request a change.

I think this question focus on the default situation. So D is correct.
Addtional, AWS notificated :
For most IAM entity limits, you cannot request a limit increase.
It doesn’t have to do anything with permissions but with approval. The keyword is permissions here. Permissions are given in IAM and approvals are given by AWS are upon request.
So the answer is D
