The last line, b., doesn't match the MC_INCORRECT token because there's
no newline after it. Is there an easy way to match this in ANTLR?
      
Yes. I had the same problem when matching the end of a //-style comment,
and solved it like this:

fragment ENDOFLINE
   : NEWLINE
   | { input.LA(1) == EOF }?
   ;

(If this were a non-fragment rule, it would be a problem that it can
sometimes match no characters, but since it's a fragment, that's OK.)

    

I want to use your solution, however it throws errors about "The 
following alternatives can never be matched: 1" for MC_QUESTION and 
MC_INCORRECT. Shouldn't the below work?

MC_QUESTION  : INT ('.'|')') .* ENDOFLINE;
MC_INCORRECT : LETTER '.' .* ENDOFLINE;
MC_CORRECT   : '*' MC_INCORRECT;

fragment ENDOFLINE : NEWLINE | { input.LA(1) == EOF }?;
fragment NEWLINE : '\r'? '\n';
fragment LETTER  : ('a'..'z'|'A'..'Z');
fragment INT     : '0'..'9'+;

You probably want to move a lot of this structure into the parser and not the lexer. It is a lot easier to just add the missing \n yourself before parsing, especially as your lexer gets bigger/more complicated.
