B) American jeans would become very expensive and desirable in the EU.

Explanation:

This outcome would result from the supply-demand law. Original American jeans are a higly desirable item in Europe and elsewhere, there is demand. You then limit supply by imposing a quota while demand remains stable; because of these restrictions, jeans will simply become more expensive in the European Union's markets.
