How would we know which noun phrase here "which" is modifying?
In case, which is modifying 2 or more than 2 entities joined by "OR", then which should be followed by a "plural" verb or "singular" verb?
For example below:
Tom or Peter, who are/is tall, will play basketball.
Mercedez Benz or Audi, which is/are luxury cars, is/are costly.
If we think about this type of construction logically, we can see that two singular nouns joined by "or" would not be plural because the construction names one OR the other.

So, the correct version is.

Tom or Peter, who IS tall, will play basketball.

Additionally, a relative clause placed after an "a or b" construction will always modify the noun or noun phrase that comes after "or."

Sorry to confirm it once again?
So in the above example, who will modify only Peter(tall) and not Tom ?
I was of the opinion that the modifier would modify both individually. Kindly correct if I am wrong.

I think it is a low-quality question as it requires knowledge of specific terminology (historical negationism). Without that knowledge, one is torn between A and C.
