b) Is the correct answer. A Chocolatey package could only contain binary files or only has dependencies to other packages. 
Examples:

* https://community.chocolatey.org/packages/winscp.portable#files / https://community.chocolatey.org/packages/winscp.portable#dependencies

Chocolatey is a software management solution unlike any you've ever experienced on Windows. Think of it like this - you create a software deployment package using a little PowerShell, then you can deploy it anywhere you have Windows with everything (like Puppet, SCCM, Altiris, Connectwise Automate, etc).

a) True

Turn your phone to portrait view and you should be able to see the menu for the spoiler.
