Haha, this is a tricky one. Trigger.old is like a ghost in the machine - it's there, but it's also not there. Option B ftw!

I'm not sure, but I think it's D) An empty list of sObjects because there are no existing records to compare in a before insert trigger.

Wait, isn't Trigger.old supposed to be the old version of the record? How can it be null or an empty list in a before insert trigger? This is confusing!

Option D seems right to me. The Trigger.old is an empty list of sObjects in a before insert trigger.

Hmm, I'm going to have to go with option B. Trigger.old is null because the record hasn't been inserted yet, right?

I'm pretty sure the Trigger.old context variable is null in a before insert trigger. It just doesn't make sense for it to contain anything else.
