Option B is also the right statement. Because, in FCCU The cracking reaction is endothermic and regeneration reaction exothermic.

@Viettan:
1- The answer should be "C"; as olefins are produced in FCC and not decomposed (there is no olefins in the FCC feed).
2- Catalytic Cracking reaction is similar to thermal cracking reactions instead the use of a catalyst in FCC, so that's right that FCC is an endothermal reaction.
Catalyst regeneration is exothermal (it's widely known as a good advantage as it gives heat to the FCC gas oil and favorites the reaction).
Hope you find this helpful.
