You may already recognize this is a follow-up to a question you were asked earlier in the interview. Interviewers ask follow-up questions directly after the original question to clarify your answer, collect more information, or explore the topic in more detail. They may also ask follow-up questions at points later in the interview to calibrate your answers. Interviewers appreciate candidates who are consistent throughout the interview. This tells them that you are not fabricating your answers but rather are using your knowledge, experience, and expertise to respond to their questions.
