With two choices for each of the two notes you ask about, I'm sure there are players who use each combination.
That said, I can't think of any reason here or through the rest of mm. 109-110 to play the C5 on the left - the right hand C key on most clarinets is in a more comfortable place and is for most of us the "regular" C fingering (this is, after all, only a slightly ornamented C Major/A minor scale). Like Paul I take the B on the left, again because for scale purposes, it's my "regular" B fingering. It's not actually a passage I ever think about, but I'm pretty sure, like Paul, I probably just put both pinkies down for B (LH B, RH C) and then, just leave my right pinky on the C key and keep my other 3 right hand fingers down while I play the A.
