Maybe the wording of the question is why people keep giving up different answers. I could see how one could read that, and assume the question is referring to the entire climb, level off, cruise process.
I see it as just "In a constant mach climb, what will you observe about TAS, IAS, and AOA as you climb to high altitude?"
I think CubDriver's answer is correct here:

TAS and IAS decrease while AoA increases.
