Only assumption II is implicit
Either I or II is implicit
Neither I nor II is implicit
Both I and II are implicit
Answer: Option

Yes, correct @Neha Singh.

Why do people need to be indoors for the call, also no prior data about the show's viewership is mentioned.

I too agree with you @Neha. It is not necessary to stay at home.

In this question, why is it necessary for people to stay at home.

Nowadays people can have mobile phones so they can attend calls any time. Moreover they can also watch the programme if they have so much interest in it on tabs and other devices and keep track of what's going on the show.
