Though the best answer here is A. this question completely undermines the product owner responsibility, its confusing in such questions when it assumes pm to perform owner role as well

Selected Answer: A
When the CEO is insisting that the solution needs to meet business goals for the year end, which is due in 6 months, it is essential to identify the root cause of the issue and work with the stakeholders to find a solution. In this case, working with the stakeholders to create a prioritized backlog and release a roadmap can help align stakeholders' needs and expectations, provide transparency into the project's progress, and enable the team to deliver features that meet business goals within the given timeframe.

C is not correct because fast-tracking and crashing are techniques used in traditional project management to shorten the schedule by overlapping or adding resources to critical path activities. These techniques may increase the risk and cost of the project and are not suitable for agile projects that value flexibility and collaboration over fixed scope and schedule.
