Suggested Answer:
Step 1: Perform a full backup of the database and enable the bulk-logged recovery model.
Not: Simple recovery model.
With the Simple recovery model we cannot minimize data loss.

Step 2: Import the data -
Step 3: Backup the tail of the transaction log.
For databases that use full and bulk-logged recovery, database backups are necessary but not sufficient. Transaction log backups are also required.
Note: Three recovery models exist: simple, full, and bulk-logged. Typically, a database uses the full recovery model or simple recovery model. A database can be switched to another recovery model at any time.

Basically, this question is asking you to perform a backup/restore as it is made via Bulk-logged recovery model. So, take a full backup, change to bulk-logged recovery model, import the data and then take a tail-log backup.

After backing up the tail of the log, the DB is in restoring state and not accessible for the users. I don't get it, why that is the answer...

It isn’t. A “tail-log” backup is using WITH NORECOVERY. After doing the load you would want to switch back to full recovery and take a full backup
