Answer:

B. Decreases

Step-by-step explanation:

Heat flows from higher temperatures to lower temperatures.

Since the environment is hotter than the can, then the heat from the environment will try to flow into the can.

Thermal insulation prevents heat to flow at an usual rate, but never stops it completely, so the only option that can be correct is B.
