If the Sun was gradually compressed while maintaining its mass in order to form a black hole, how would the curvature of spacetime be affected at the location of the Earth?

A) It would not change because the mass of the Sun is not changing. B) The curvature would become greater because a black hole has stronger gravity than the Sun. C) The curvature would be reduced because the Sun would get so much smaller. D) Compressing the Sun would not form a black hole because a black hole needs to be at least 2—3 times the mass of the Sun.
