Answer is B. No, the Germans continued fighting and attempted offensive measures.

After the D-Day, the German resistance was running out of time. Paris was freed in August 1944 as the Allies gradually pushed eastward. In the meantime, the Soviet Union was also advancing into German territory. At the Battle of the Bulge, Adolf Hitler initiated one last unsuccessful counteroffensive in December 1944 and soon after, the Americans, British, and Free French hurried the Soviets to Berlin.

With almost nothing left to mantain any kind of resistance, the Germans surrendered on May 8, 1945, in the day known as V-E (Victory in Europe) Day.
