(C) It decreases
In general, the strength of all fields (such as gravitational, electric, and magnetic fields) decreases with increasing distance from their sources. For example, the gravitational force decreases with the square of the distance from the mass causing the gravitational field, and similarly, the electric field strength from a point charge decreases with the square of the distance from the charge.
