B. if all resources are fully and efficiently utilized, more of one good can be produced only by producing less of another good.

Explanation:

Assuming that production is optimally efficient, the production possibility frontier model shows the different possible quantities that two separate commodities may be produced at when there is a limited availability of a certain resource which are required by both commodities for manufacture.

The model assumes that the production of one commodity can only be increased when the production of the other commodity decreases due to the limited available resource.
