Wrong. Denouement is the finale of a play or can be said to be the end result. Therefore, the opposite is denouement should be origin/beginning which can therefore be traced to option A.
denouement
/deɪˈnuːmɒ̃/
Learn to pronounce
noun
the final part of a play, film, or narrative in which the strands of the plot are drawn together and matters are explained or resolved.
"the film's denouement was unsatisfying and ambiguous"
Answer is B
The word that can be taken as the opposite of "denouement" is "climax".
While "denouement" refers to the final resolution or outcome of a story, "climax" refers to the turning point or highest point of tension in a story, when the conflict is at its peak.
Therefore, the opposite of "denouement", which is the end of a story, would be the "climax", which is the peak of the story's tension and conflict.
