Solution

The correct option is C False
Friction is the opposing force that comes into play when an object tries to slide on any other surface.So friction is due to microscopic irregularities (which depends on type of surface) on two surfaces which are trying to slide against each other.So friction clearly depends on type of surfaces in contact.So above statement is false.
