C is correct because every bash script should start with #!/bin/bash B is correct because /etc/systemd/system is the correct folder for a unit file. E is INCORRECT because /etc/init.d is an invalid folder path. E appears to be there to through people off the track of the correct answer.

C. Add #!/bin/bash to the top of the script. B. Create a unit file for the new service in /etc/systemd/system/ with the name helpme.service in the location. Option C is necessary because it specifies the interpreter for the script. The shebang line, "#!/bin/bash", must be added to the top of the script to indicate which interpreter should be used to run the script. Option B is necessary because the script must be registered as a service in the systemd system in order to be executed at startup. The administrator should create a unit file for the new service in /etc/systemd/system/ with the name helpme.service, which will describe how the service should be executed and how it should be managed by the system.
