when the DC fail which mean its not online and when you use the ntdsutil to clean up the meta data you basically remove the dc out of the domain

I think the answer is wrong, B would be the good answer, which is NO, you need to delete the domain controller before performing the metadata clean up. the best way to do this is just delete the dc object which is the domain controller computer in the domain controller OU

First you need to cleanup metadata then delete object from Sites and Services. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/identity/ad-ds/deploy/ad-ds-metadata-cleanup

Yes is ok. Metadata cleanup removes data from AD DS that identifies a domain controller to the replication system. Metadata cleanup also removes File Replication Service (FRS) and Distributed File System (DFS) Replication connections and attempts to transfer or seize any operations master. Can use ADUC, ADSS or ntdsutil https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/identity/ad-ds/deploy/ad-ds-metadata-cleanup
