B Correct answer
Explanation

In COBOL, the OCCURS clause cannot be used at the 01 level. The 01 level represents the highest level in the Data Division and defines record structures, not arrays. OCCURS must be used at lower levels (02-49) to define table elements within a record structure. This is a fundamental rule in COBOL data description.
