The answer should be Option C, because the teacher says that the higher you go, the cooler it is. And this statement is a universal truth and a scientifically proven fact. We all know that in the case of a universal truth or habitual fact, the sentence in indirect statement is not changed. The statement is repeated as it is. Therefore, the answer should be C. And as for the ones advocating Option B as a suitable answer, I'd like to remind them that the teacher has not mentioned themselves. They have only stated a universal truth. Thus, Option B is not a suitable option. I hereby request SOF to take this and other such questions in consideration and make the needed corrections.

The correct answer should be C since the teacher is expressing a universal truth, that's why we put the 'is' at the end. Some people in these replies say that the answer can also be B if we count it as the teacher's personal experience. But if the statement was,"The higher I go, the cooler it gets", then B could be the correct option. The dude did not give even a simple mention of himself in the original sentence, so B is not the correct option. Clearly, the expression is a universal truth, so the correct option is C. SOF should take this thing into consideration and make correction in the answer key.

It seems that C and B are both correct....
C is correct if you count it as a universal truth,
and B is correct if you count it as an experience of the teacher and not referring to the to the science property....
