Exothermic

Explanation:

The darkness of the room isn't related to the chemical reaction taking place that makes the flame.

The wax is burning and turning into carbon dioxide and water. In the process, it gives off heat (and light). Giving off of heat makes it exothermic (heat exits the reaction...exothermic).
