B Correct answer
Explanation

POST is more secure than GET because POST data is sent in the HTTP request body, not visible in the URL. GET appends form data to the URL, making it visible in browser history and server logs, and has length limitations (typically 2048 characters). POST can send much larger data and is the standard method for sensitive information like passwords. Option A incorrectly reverses the length limitations, and Option C is false.
