BResource leveling without extending the project's completion time indicates that the critical path did not have negative slack (A is false because negative slack would imply a delay beyond the scheduled finish, which did not happen). Also, tasks using the same resources that were leveled could have been on the critical path, but the fact that leveling did not extend the project's duration suggests that either these tasks were not on the critical path or, if they were, the project had enough slack to accommodate the leveling without affecting the project's end date (B is false because it's possible for leveled tasks to be on the critical path if there's enough slack to absorb the leveling without delaying the project).
