Explanation

The provided correct answer (C - MTBF) does not align with standard SLA terminology for this scenario. MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) is a reliability metric measuring average operational time between outages - it does not quantify recoverable data. The question 'how much data can be restored' is definitionally answered by RPO (Recovery Point Objective) - answer B - which specifies the maximum acceptable data loss expressed as a recovery point in time (e.g., 'restore data from up to 4 hours ago'). RTO defines how quickly service must be restored; MTTR measures repair duration. For all standard certifications (CompTIA Cloud+, AWS, etc.), RPO is the correct answer when the question involves data recovery scope. Review your source material, as this answer key entry appears to contain an error.
