C) Japan’s uninterrupted string of victories was broken.
Explanation: Coral Sea was the first major check on Japanese expansion — it stopped the seaborne move toward Port Moresby (reducing the threat to Australia) and marked the end of Japan's unbroken run of successes, forcing a reassessment of their plans. (The fact that the ships never sighted each other is true, but it’s a tactical detail rather than the strategic impact.)
