Steven is a Scrum Master on a new Scrum Team. What would be the best way for him to determine if the Product Owner is interacting enough with the Development Team during a Sprint?

A. Check whether the Product Owner is actively engaged at the Daily Scrums.
B. Check whether the Increment presented at the Sprint Review meets the Product Owner’s expectations.
C. See whether the Product Owner has provided enough information at the Sprint Planning to make his/her presence optional during the Sprint. The level of autonomy within the Development Team can be the result of having the right presence from the Product Owner.
D. The Product Owner must always be present with the Development Team. Unavailability of the Product Owner is prohibited in Scrum.

Correct Answer: C
The level of autonomy within the Development Team can be the result of having the right presence from the Product Owner and him explaining to the team what the priorities are and why during the Sprint Planning.
