Speak is an intransitive verb, however, the continuous form is also correct if the situation claims it.

Here "Speak for itself/themselves" refers to showing something clearly that doesn't need any explanation to make clear. But "Speak about something/someone" refers to talking about sth/sb. Hence option-B is the best choice.
