    A is correct as you can create whatever OS you need in the VHD and upload it, but between B and C there is some uncertainty:
    from
    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cloud-services/cloud-services-guestos-update-matrix

    Family 2 is Server 2008 R2 – (Family 1 is plain old 2008) and the requirements didn’t specify that it ran under R2 so we cannot assume it is valid.
    Family 1 will work with the application but became unavailable for new machines in 2014:

    Weighing up what is probably 2 outdated options makes me thing A and C were correct when the question was written, but if it appeared now it would have to be A and B.

    I agree with the others that it is probably an obsolete question.

      Thinking on this more, you could argue that the OS on a VM does not explicitly say it has dot net 3.5 so is not certain to work.

      If there is only one option, chose the Guest OS family defined in the question.

      I have seen more recent versions of this question with 2008R2 specified in the text and only one answer required.
