A Correct answer
Explanation

BTEQ (Basic Teradata Query) uses a spool mechanism to store query results temporarily. If BTEQ terminates abnormally (due to error, system failure, or manual interruption), all rows currently in the spool are automatically discarded to prevent partial or inconsistent data from being committed. This ensures data integrity and prevents incomplete results from being processed or exported.
