B.

It can go from very hot to very cold, it depends on the area of the moon and where the sunlight hits.

when the sun shines, it illuminates only one part of the moon. The article states, "Daytime on one side of the moon lasts about 13 and a half days, followed by 13 and a half nights of darkness. When sunlight hits the moon's surface, the temperature can reach 253 degrees F (123 C). The "dark side of the moon" can have temperatures dipping to minus 243 F (minus 153 C).Oct 22, 2012". Therefore, b is correct
