Solution

The correct option is B False
Relative pronouns have two functions- Like other pronouns they stand for a noun or pronoun placed before them and like conjunctions they join subclauses with main clause and start the adjective clause. The relative pronouns are who, whom, whose, which, that, as, but.
'Why' is not a relative pronoun. So, the given sentence is false.
Thus option B is the correct answer.
