The correct answer is B. Congress can limit the Supreme Court by proposing amendments to the Constitution to overturn a Supreme Court decision.

The Congress can propose an amendment with the votes of two thirds (of a quorum, not necessarily of the entire chamber) of the Senate and the House of Representatives. Once proposed, the amendments must be ratified by three-quarters of the states to take effect.
