You are correct! Sentence A) "The milk turned sour after sitting out on the counter overnight" uses the word "turned" as a linking verb. To determine if a verb is being used as a linking verb, we look at whether it connects the subject of the sentence to a noun, pronoun, or adjective that renames or describes the subject. In this case, "turned" connects the subject "milk" to the adjective "sour," describing its state.
