Correct answer: A release burndown chart.
Why this is the answer
A release burndown chart tracks the remaining work for a release over time, making it ideal for indicating the time remaining on a medium-sized project. It visually represents the progress towards completing all the work items planned for a release, showing how much work is left and projecting when it will be finished based on the team's velocity. Analysis of the business requirements document provides details about what needs to be built, not how much time is left. Story points for the remaining user stories quantify the effort for individual stories but don't directly translate to time remaining without considering velocity and overall scope. Surrogate measurements are indirect indicators and less precise than a burndown chart for tracking remaining work.
