C) Increase the voltage of the battery and increase the number of turns of the coil.

According to the ideal transformers equation Ns/ Np = Vs/Vp where s= secondary and p= primary, number of turns is proportional to voltage so a increased number of turns and increased voltage result in a higher power.

Hope I helped!
