Explanation
In a Sprint burn-up chart, the bar tracks completed work - it grows longer as items are finished and removed from the Sprint Backlog, which is what "deleted" means here: work that has met the Definition of Done and is no longer outstanding. Option A is incorrect because time advancing is represented on the chart's horizontal axis, not by bar length - the passage of time alone completes nothing. Option B is incorrect because adding work to the Sprint Backlog increases total scope, which would make the bar harder to fill, not longer. A helpful memory tip: think "burn-up" - the bar climbs up as work is done and dropped off the backlog; more completed = longer bar, not more added.
