Why each option

Azure Resource Manager (ARM) templates, which define and deploy Azure resources, are authored using JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) format.

AXML

XML is not the file format used for Azure Resource Manager templates.

Btext

While an ARM template is a text file, 'text' is too generic and not the specific, required file format.

CJSONCorrect

Azure Resource Manager (ARM) templates are standardized to use JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) for defining the infrastructure and configuration of Azure resources.

Dbinary

ARM templates are human-readable text files and are not stored in a binary format.
