Step 1
The call option gives the holder the right to purchase a certain number of shares at the strike price, thus if it is exercised, it means that the stock of Tesla was purchased at a price of 600 even if the market price was 630.
The contract's execution price in terms of options is known as the strike price.
All of the other claims are untrue because they have nothing to do with selling Tesla stock.
