C. Behind schedule Schedule variance refers to the difference between the work that has been completed and the work that was planned at a given point in time. A negative schedule variance indicates that less work has been completed than was planned, meaning the project is behind schedule. Even though the project is under budget and quality checks are positive, a negative schedule variance shows that the project is not progressing as planned in terms of time.

C. Behind schedule The project manager mentions that the schedule variance is negative, which indicates that the project is behind schedule. Even though the project is under budget and quality checks are positive, a negative schedule variance specifically points to delays in the timeline.

I would change my answer. SV = EV - PV. SV is negative, It means behind.
