A Correct answer
Explanation

To ensure a net.tcp WCF service starts and runs continuously from boot, hosting in a managed Windows Service is the standard practice. While IIS 7.0 with WAS supports net.tcp, it starts services on-demand rather than starting them automatically at server boot unless specifically configured (like alwaysRunning, but the simple choice here is hosting in a Windows Service). Hosting in WPF is incorrect for headless background execution.
