What is the correct response to the following statement?
I would have come if I could have.
A: Would you?
B: You needn’t have bothered.
I think only A is correct or would B work too?

Hi FrankU,
The two answers to your question have different meanings. Would you is a comment that doesn’t indicate any direction. You needn’t have bothered is a statement meaning: I don’t think that was necessary.
