B)Unique solution at (0, 2)
C)Unique solution at (2, 0)
D)Infinitely many solutions
E)No solution

Changing the second constraint to $x + y \leq 2$ and aiming for minimization alters the feasible region. The point (0, 2) becomes the optimal solution because it satisfies all the constraints including the new one, and minimizes the objective function within the new feasible region.
