Incorrect:
Not A: The burndown chart is mostly use to examine sprint progress. Sprint Burndown charts can show the team how much work remains in the Sprint. These charts will often include an ideal trend line. This line represents the ideal rate at which the Development Team is able to complete all of the remaining effort, at a constant rate, by the end of the Sprint.
Professional Scrum Development with Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 p.283 Not D: Story points should be already assigned to PBIs during identification for the sprint.
Not E: The product backlog is primarily managed by your product owner and contains a high- level view of all the work that your team must complete to create the product. Your product owner ranks the user stories in the product backlog and provides sufficient detail during the sprint planning meeting so that your team can estimate and implement each user story. Product Backlog Estimate units: Story Points (while Sprint backlog Estimate units is hours).
