Solution

The correct option is A True
Explanation:
Set of natural numbers are: $\{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, . . . . . . . . . . . .\}$
Set of whole numbers are: $\{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, . . . . . . .\}$
It is clearly visible that $0$ is the whole number but it is not a natural number.
Hence, we can say that every whole number is not a natural number.
