I think C is better, because there is no need for users to delete the relationship first like option D has.

Selected Answer: C

Answer is wrong. Restrict = Any related records can be navigated to. Actions taken on the parent record will not be applied to the child record, but the parent record cannot be deleted while the child record exists. With this, it would not be possible to delete Accounts which have Account Plans. But according to the requirement it should be possible to delete Accounts even if they have Account Plans. Correct Answer: Remove Link = Any related records can be navigated to, and actions taken on one will not affect the other.
