A Correct answer
Explanation

For DISP=(NEW,DELETE,DELETE), if the job step abnormally terminates, the second parameter (DELETE) executes, deleting the dataset. If it completes normally, the third parameter (DELETE) also executes. This is a disposable scratch dataset pattern. Other combinations would catalog or uncatlog the dataset.
