B. Only Puritans could vote for governor.

Explanation: Massachusetts Bay was a theocracy where political rights (like voting and holding office) were restricted to male church members ("freemen"). The other options are false: Puritans were not generally tax‑exempt, they had to obey colony laws, and business ownership was not limited only to Puritans.
