The ISTQB CT-AI syllabus explains supervised learning under Section1.6 – Machine Learning Approaches. It definesclassificationas predictingcategorical labels, whereasregressionpredictscontinuous numerical values. OptionB—deciding whether an object is a bicycle or a motorcycle—fits the definition of classification precisely because the model chooses between discrete categories. The syllabus also uses similar examples to illustrate classification tasks, reinforcing that this is the correct interpretation .
Option A is incorrect because image recognition of a dog is aclassificationtask, not regression. Option C is incorrect because predicting a 10% price rise involves forecasting anumerical value, which is aregressionproblem. Option D is incorrect because classification can involveany number of classes, not only two. Multiclass classification is explicitly mentioned in the syllabus.
Therefore, OptionBis the only answer aligned with the syllabus’ definitions.
