I think is D. You can create a tgz file without creating first a tar file.

tar -czf texts.tgz a.txt b.txt create first tar archive and after create gzip compression file. I verified on Debian9 and answer is E.

After executing some commands, the answer is E because when you use gunzip without any parameter, i.e -k --keep, the extraction will not keep .tgz, but only .tar
