参考答案:B
解析:For options that differ only by exercise price, a call with a lower exercise price typically has more value than a call with a higher exercise price because the underlying instrument can be purchased at a lower price. A put with a higher exercise price typically has more value than a put with a lower exercise price because the underlying instrument can be sold for a higher price.
