Should Be B: Continuous WebJob:  Starts immediately when the WebJob is created. To keep the job from ending, the program or script typically does its work inside an endless loop. If the job does end, you can restart it  Runs on all instances that the web app runs on. You can optionally restrict the WebJob to a single instance  Supports remote debugging

I believe the answer is correct. Since the webjob is deployed with the service that is when it gets triggered and I believe it runs for the life of the service. Since a webjob can only run on a single instance that would make the answer A.
