C Correct answer
Explanation

Equivocal means ambiguous, unclear, or open to multiple interpretations. If someone's stance is equivocal, it's unclear how they will react, which matches the context. 'Clear' and 'transparent' are opposites; 'oblique' means indirect but doesn't capture the uncertainty about reaction.
