Which one, A or B, is closer to the mean inof the distribution, or conversely which is more remote outlier to the distribution.

The eigenvectors $u_i$ tell the directions of the dispersions, and the eigenvalues $\lambda_i$ tell the variances of the dispersions. Higher eigenvalue means larger variance. Then if I scale the space by $\frac {1}{\sqrt{\lambda_A}}$ in the A direction and $\frac {1}{\sqrt{\lambda_B}}$ in the B direction, I can decide which is nearclose to the mean by comparing:
