Correct Answer:
B. In order to prevent as many defects as possible, all defects should be analyzed.
Explanation

The statement that all defects should be analyzed to prevent as many defects as possible is FALSE. In the Defect Prevention process area at TMMi Level 5, only a subset of defects—those that are recurring or considered to be of significant impact—are analyzed. Analyzing all defects would be inefficient and not always necessary. Instead, a targeted approach is used to identify common causes of defects and implement actions to prevent their recurrence. TMMi Reference: The Defect Prevention process area is based on the analysis of a subset of defects to find and eliminate common causes​​.
