The correct answer is AB.
If the firm is in a short-run position where P<AVC, the firm is better off shutting down.
Reason: When choosing to produce, if the price doesn't cover the average variable cost, the firm is better off stopping production altogether. The firm will be losing money, because of fixed cost, but it will lose even more if stays open. The region of AB is fixed cost.
