Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Software reliability is defined as the probability of failure-free operation within a specified time. It is directly dependent on the number of errors present in the system, as these latent defects cause failures during execution. While design quality influences error rates, reliability metrics specifically measure the absence of failures resulting from existing errors.
