Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option B — sailboat underway

Rule 25(c) allows a sailing vessel of less than 20 meters to combine its sidelights and sternlight into a single lantern carried at or near the top of the mast. A single green light indicates the starboard side of a sailing vessel, confirming it is underway and under sail.
