Garbage collector is all so collecting of unused memory/referenced memory.

All objects are actually not placed in the garbage collectible heap. Only ones that can be garbage collected.
Objects that are instantiated in an anonymous class might still be used, because they are still in scope. They are not just on a garbage heap because they are in an anonymous class.
B. is correct, because the "islands of isolated objects" actually exist because they are referenced in a circular way, and cannot therefore be garbage collected.

void f()
{
Object o = new Runnable() { public void run() {} };
}
'o' is allocated on stack, or JIT used is just a crap.
