Can anyone help with this ATPL question?

How does VMCG change with increasing field elevation and temperature?

A. Increases, because at a lower density a larger IAS is necessary to generate the required rudder force.
B. Increases, because VMCG is related to V1 and VR and those speeds increase if the density decreases.
C. Decreases, because the engine thrust decreases.
D. Decreases, because VMCG is expressed in IAS and the IAS decreases with TAS constant and decreasing density.
