Do they get moved back 5 and still have an untimed down or is the half over?

Note: I am not a football official. Just a fan who heard about this scenario. Not rooting for either team. Just like to know rules.
CANADIAN RULING:

If the pass is incomplete, B can decline to end the half. If B accepts, move back 5 yards and replay the down.
