Why each option

To prevent users from customizing report information in Lightning Experience, the administrator should lock report filters.

AUtilize Custom Report Types.

Utilizing Custom Report Types defines the objects and fields available for reports, but does not prevent users from customizing existing report data or filters.

BLock report filters.Correct

Locking report filters prevents users from adding, removing, or changing the filter criteria on a report, effectively preventing them from customizing the displayed data without affecting their ability to view the report.

CChange Field Level Security.

Changing Field Level Security controls visibility of fields, not the ability to customize report filters or data once the report is built.

DRun the report as a specified user.

Running the report as a specified user impacts what data the report returns based on that user's security settings, but does not prevent customization of the report itself.
