c.
A credit score is a numeric measure of an individual’s creditworthiness. A credit rating (in consumer contexts) is more like a category or label that places that score into a range (e.g., poor/fair/good/excellent). In broader finance, “credit rating” usually refers to letter-grade assessments (AAA, BBB, etc.) issued for companies, governments, or securities.
