Yes, it's suitable for a cantilever beam.

Top layer is right.

Transversely means axially loading.

@Navaj.
If so, why there is compressive stress at the bottom in case of cantilever beam?

I agree @Navaj.

Given answer is correct because actually stress means internal pressure to resist external loading as it is loaded transversely compression is at top and tension is at bottom but to resist bottom tension there should be compression force is required and this internal compressive force per unit area is nothing but compressive stress at bottom. So answer b is correct.

A should be the correct answer.

If it is cantilever beam the answer would be bottom later.
If it is SSB then the top layer.
Transfer load means acting perpendicular to the beam axis.
If it is SSB then the top layer.
Transfer load means acting perpendicular to the beam axis.

Answer is correct if it is a cantilever. It is wrong if the beam is simply supported.

If it is SS Beam then the top layer.
If it is SS Beam then the top layer.
