For answer  A 

The intermittent honking, to warn the road users behind the vehicle, is not recommended in such situations, some road users might get frightened.

For answer  B 

The intermittent yellow lights, more precisely the direction indicator lights, are used for signalling the change of direction of travel, including when setting the vehicle in motion from standstill. These do not constitute the specific signalling of moving in reverse.
