Question Lock-on Altitude?

Several JAA exam questions have referred to the lock-on altitude and the optimum altitude. Questions such as:

Both the lock-on altitude and the optimum altitude increase during the cruise. Which is the best level to fly at?

(a)The optimum altitude
(b)The lock-on altitude
(c)Between the lock-on altitude
(d)Just below the optimum altitude

Optimum altitude I thought I understood but what is the lock-on altitude?
