Explanation
B is correct because a VRRP virtual router can have both virtual IP addresses and real (physical) IP addresses. When a router's actual interface IP matches the VRRP virtual IP, that router is called the IP address owner - making that IP simultaneously a real and virtual address within the group.
A (TRUE) is wrong because it incorrectly claims the virtual router is restricted to only virtual IPs, ignoring the IP address owner scenario where a physical interface IP is identical to and serves as the virtual IP.
Memory tip: Think of VRRP as a team - the team can have a shared jersey number (virtual IP), but one player might actually own that number as their real jersey too (IP address owner). The team isn't limited to just shared numbers.
