The answer to your question would be that the rule that would help you punctuate correctly the bold portion of the sentence is the following one: Question mark or Exclamation Point Inside Rule. That is, the correct option would be B.

You should place a question mark or exclamation point within closing quotation marks if the punctuation applies to the quotation itself. You should place the punctuation outside the closing quotation marks if the punctuation applies to all the sentence.
