Interesting interview question.....
A is for CICS abend.
FC is for File Control.
I & Y is for nothing really, but both refer to a transaction that was purged while accessing file control.
Have you looked at the Messages and Codes manual?

Somebody PURGEd or FORCEPURGEd the transaction or it was timed out or CICS terminated it because of an SOS condition....
