Thanks @edwincervantes for contribution.

Practice exams sometimes contain wrong information and are not a very good source of information.

Multi-home means more than one connection, not two. Sources include:

Multihoming is the practice of connecting a host or a computer network to more than one network | Wikipedia

Firewall has two or more interfaces, it is referred to as multi-homed | CEH AI-matt walker book: page 377

A multi-homed firewall is a firewall device or host system that has two or more network interfaces | PC care

A multi-homed host is a host (a firewall in this case) that has more than one network interface | SourceDaddy
