There is no way to retrieve the security question.

If you forget your Yahoo IDs you can get a list if you used the same alternate email address for all of them.

If you forget your Yahoo password or someone has changed it you must provide your date of birth and original zip code. A new password will be sent to your alternate email address. If there was no alternate email address then the secret question will be asked. You must follow those steps. There is no way around it.

Here is a form for forgotten IDs and passwords.
