Iceland is one of the least populated countries in the world. It is located at the North Atlantic Ocean between North America and Europe, with an area of 103,000 km2 and a population of 348,580. To answer this question lets take a look at each statement:

A) it is the only place to get a job in the Icelandic fishing industry. - False - The Capital Region comprehends the majority of the population, but fishing-related jobs can be found as well as in every coastal city in the country.

B) it is the only part of the country that is habitable. - False - The southern part of the country make up more than 60% of the population, but the other percentage is distributed in other sides of the country, in the east, west, and in the north as well.

C) most people prefer to live in moderate climates.  - True - The climate in the south is remarkably subpolar oceanic, while in the rest of the Island the Tundra climate dominates. In addition, the south coast, where most of the Icelandic population lives, is warmer, wetter and windier than the North.

D) people don't want to live near active volcanoes in the north. - False - The highlands of Iceland, a plateau that covers most of Iceland interior is inhabited because of the poor quality of the soil, resulted from volcanic desertification, not actually active volcanoes.

Which gives us, C is the right answer.
