His dealings are all above board.
Answer: A
The phrase means open.
Above board means honest and done openly, with nothing hidden. The expression is said to come from card games, where a player who keeps his hands above the table cannot be cheating.
Decent and friendly describe good manners or warmth rather than openness, and simple means uncomplicated. The idiom stresses that nothing is concealed.
