Why each option

A single remote backend configuration in Terraform is designed to manage the state for a single workspace, providing isolation for different environments or projects within the same backend.

ATrueCorrect

While a remote backend itself can store multiple workspaces, each specific `backend` configuration block in your Terraform code points to and manages the state for one designated workspace, ensuring logical separation of states.

BFalse

Although a remote backend service can host multiple workspaces, a given `backend` configuration in your `main.tf` is configured to interact with a specific workspace's state within that backend.
