True or False: the More Shells in an Atom, the Lower

True or False: The more shells in an atom, the lower its electronegativity. Explain.

A) Always true; the greater the number of shells in an atom, the lower the electronegativity.
B) Always false; the greater the number of shells in an atom, the higher the electronegativity.
C) Sometimes true and sometimes false; This holds true only within any one atomic group (vertical column) .
D) Sometimes true and sometimes false; This holds true only across any given period (row) of the periodic table.
