Discussion
A stage's collector sits a few tenths of a volt above its emitter. What has happened?
Answer: C
The device is saturated: too much base current for the load to support, typically from a divider resistor that has changed value or a leaky coupling capacitor injecting bias. Cut-off would show the collector at the supply. An open load resistor would also read low but with no current, which a measurement across the resistor settles. Two readings rather than one distinguish every case here.
