The EBS Volumes attached to the EC2 Instance will always have to remain in the same availability zone as the EC2 Instance. Possible reason to this is because of the fact that EBS Volumes are present outside of the host machine and instances have to be connected over the network, if the EBS Volumes are present outside the Availability Zone there can be potential latency issues and subsequent performance degradation. What you can do in such scenario is, get the Snapshot of the EBS Volume (Snapshot sequentially captures the state of your EBS Volume and stores it in S3 Bucket (friendly reminder that it will cost you man) ) and post that you have two options , you can either create an EBS Volume from this snapshot in your desired Availability Zone or you can create an AMI from this snapshot in your desired Availability Zone and then go ahead and launch your EC2 instance from it.

Answer is C. EBS is Available Zone specific, not a Region Specific. You have to complete the snapshot and create new volume in another Available Zone from the snapshot.
