Answer A. One of the key assumptions of linear regression is that the residuals have constant variance at every level of the predictor variable(s). If this assumption is not met, the residuals are said to suffer from heteroscedasticity. When this occurs, the estimates for the model coefficients become unreliable https://www.statology.org/constant-variance-assumption/

D is best answer all x values are scattering as a whole , no matter what x is https://www.statisticshowto.com/residual-plot/ if you take all x values to plot histogram , it will be bel-curv.

And it does NOT mean linear regression is not appropriate. It means your linear regression model is biased due to several reasons.

yes, it does. One of the main assumptions is homoscedasticity.

I will choose A , because the data is heteroscedastic. It violates a key assumption of linear regeression
