    Nope. The transaction log backup need to be done BEFORE the bulk import. The question asks that XLog is to be MINIMALLY affected also. So the answer order displayed is correct.

    The answer is not wrong, but in real life scenario, I would rather take the log backup after changing the recovery model to Bulk_logged. This is to include any transaction happens during the time the recovery model is being changed (even milliseconds).

    The database is currently configured with the FULL recovery model; so, before you change it to the BULK-LOGGED model (for the data load), perform a T-Log backup. After the data load, perform a T-Log backup again before reverting the DB back to the FULL recovery model.
