The correct answer is D) a towing light above the stern light.
According to the International and Inland Navigation Rules, a power-driven vessel with a 150-meter stern tow is required to display a towing light (yellow) above the stern light (white) to indicate the length of the tow. This configuration helps other vessels identify the presence and extent of the tow.
