The answer is B False, I think there's been a mistake in checking A. Scrum expressly rejects the role of "Project Manager" (PM). https://www.scrum.org/forum/scrum-forum/5360/project-manager-produt-owner

Project managers and Scrum master are not the same thing. Becuase SM’s don’t actually “manage” but they coach and make sure the TEAM follows the scrum values.

The answer is wrong, it must be answer B: there is no project manager role in Scrum and none of the 3 roles of Scrum act as a traditional project manager.

The answer is B (False) - because the Scrum master is like a coach and not a PM. The Scrum Guide says: The Scrum Master is responsible for promoting and supporting Scrum as defined in the Scrum Guide. Scrum Masters do this by helping everyone understand Scrum theory, practices, rules, and values. The Scrum Master is a servant-leader for the Scrum Team. The Scrum Master helps those outside the Scrum Team understand which of their interactions with the Scrum Team are helpful and which aren’t. The Scrum Master helps everyone change these interactions to maximize the value created by the Scrum Team.
