Almost all of the earth-facing side of the Moon is a pretty good reflector of light, and it would be reflecting starlight all the time, in all phases of the moon. The answer the author of the question is looking for is, "full moon." That happens when the moon is not in the shadow cast by the Earth.The question should read, "reflects sunlight."

Because the part of the Earth you are on is not facing the Sun at that time. The earth is continuously rotating, so at any time, part of the Earth is facing the Sun and part is facing away from it.
