Which two actions are the most appropriate for Steven to take?

Steven, the Scrum Master, is approached by one of the Development Team members saying that they are not completing regression tests for all of the work they are performing to the level defined in the Definition of Done. They have discussed this with the Product Owner and decided to remove regression testing from the Definition of Done.

Which two actions are the most appropriate for Steven to take? (Choose two.)
A . Reject the decision as the long term maintainability of the product will be negatively impacted by modifying the Definition of Done.
B . Accept the decision as a mutual agreement has been made between the Development Team and the Product Owner.
C . Ask the Development Team and the Product Owner what problem they are trying to solve by altering the Definition of Done and removing regression testing from it. In what ways will this decision impact transparency and quality?
D . Ask the Development Team and the Product Owner if they are still able to produce potentially shippable product increments by altering the Definition of Done?
