Explanation
Creating an initiative allows you to group multiple policy definitions together into a single logical unit, which directly addresses the requirement to deploy policies "as a group." Scoping the assignment to a management group ensures the initiative automatically applies to all Azure subscriptions nested within that management group, satisfying the requirement to cover all three subscriptions simultaneously without needing separate assignments per subscription.
There is no distractor option (B - "No") that presents a valid counter-argument here, because this solution precisely matches Azure's intended architecture for managing policies at scale: initiatives group policies, and management group scoping cascades assignments downward through the hierarchy.
Memory Tip: Think of it as "Group policies = Initiative, Group subscriptions = Management Group." Whenever an exam question asks you to apply multiple policies across multiple subscriptions at once, the answer almost always involves an initiative (for grouping definitions) scoped to a management group (for broad coverage). If the scope were set to individual subscriptions instead of a management group, you would need three separate assignments - that would be inefficient and would likely be the "No" scenario.
