Correct Option: B
am will replace is because –
when the Subject of the Verb is a Relative Pronoun (who), the Verb (is) agrees in Number and Person with the Antecedent of the Rel. Pro.
A Noun/Pronoun which comes before a Rel. Pro. is called Antecedent.
Here, I is the Antecedent of who (Rel. Pro.) with I so, am is used.
Hence, who am to blame is the right usage.
