A would be correct if it was one towing light and a stern light. I think. It was a tricky question and you would not see this on any test.

OK everyone I work a the tug at any time you were towing stern you are displays two white Mast lights ahead if the length of the tow is less than 200 m a Stern if the length of the tow exceeds 200 m then you will display three white lights on the mast and if the vessel is over 50 m then you would display three white lights on the mast and one forward light along with the red white red and your side lights and towing lights this sums it up right nutshell
