Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The circuit is operating in the active region, which is indicated by the presence of proper biasing that allows the transistor to amplify signals. In the active region, the transistor's base-emitter junction is forward-biased, and the base-collector junction is reverse-biased, which is typical for normal amplifier operation. The question does not provide specific voltages or configurations, but the description implies correct biasing for active operation.
