Explanation:

When measuring temperature, the thermometer reading must stabilize to get an accurate value. If it turns off, changes twice, or moves, it may not represent the true temperature of the food. A steady reading indicates thermal equilibrium between the thermometer and the food.

"stays steady" is the correct option.
