Explanation

Line dominance means a company offers a broader selection of products within a category than any competitor - more sizes, flavors, styles, or variations - making it the go-to source for that type of product (C).

Why the distractors are wrong:

  • A (selling more units) describes market share or sales volume, not product breadth.
  • B (best placement) describes shelf positioning or retail merchandising strategy, a separate concept.
  • D (better name recognition) describes brand awareness or brand equity, which is about reputation, not selection depth.

Memory tip: Think of "line" as your product line - dominance means your line is the longest (most choices). If you dominate the line, you have the most options on the shelf.
