B)Yes, whenever the vehicle has ABS.
C)No, it should only be used when immobilizing the vehicle.Correct
The handbrake, or parking brake, is designed to keep the vehicle immobilized when it is parked. Using it with the vehicle in motion is very dangerous, as it can lock the rear wheels and cause loss of control or skidding. Its correct use is limited to parking, helping with hill starts, and as a last resort in case of emergency if the main brakes fail.
