Correct, you have to install the vulnerability scanner on the VMSS1_0 first.

To support the answer:
Yes, Microsoft Defender for Cloud can perform vulnerability scans on Virtual Machine Scale Sets (VMSS). Here are the key points:
Agentless scanning: Defender for Cloud offers agentless vulnerability assessment for VMSS, providing visibility into installed software and vulnerabilities without requiring an agent installation18.
Microsoft Defender Vulnerability Management: This built-in and agentless scanner is included with Microsoft Defender for Servers. It discovers vulnerabilities and misconfigurations in near real-time for VMSS37.
Continuous monitoring: Microsoft Defender Vulnerability Management continuously monitors your organization for vulnerabilities, so periodic scans aren't required7.
Answer = E

Defender for Cloud collects data from your Azure virtual machines (VMs), Virtual Machine Scale Sets, IaaS containers, and non-Azure (including on-premises) machines to monitor for security vulnerabilities and threats --> E
Based on the information from Microsoft Learn, Microsoft Defender for Cloud can perform vulnerability scans on the following types of machines:
• Azure virtual machines
• Azure Arc-enabled machines (which includes on-premises physical computers connected to Microsoft Defender for Cloud)
Given this, the answer to your question would be E. VM1, VM2, Server 1, and VMSS1_0. All these machines, whether they are Azure virtual machines or an on-premises physical computer connected to Microsoft Defender for Cloud, can be scanned for vulnerabilities using Microsoft Defender for Cloud.

You can scan, but for VMSS (VM Scale Sets) you need to install the scanner and that is not specified here, so D would be a better answer for the given info.
Correct answer is D - Refer this https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/defender-for-cloud/faq-vulnerability-assessments#why-does-my-machine-show-as--not-applicable--in-the-recommendation-
D is correct. Can't run Qualys Vulnerability Scanning on VMSS
