Solution

The correct option is A True
Newton's First Law states - "An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force".
This means that bodies do not change their position on their own. The tendency to be in the original state of rest or of uniform motion is called inertia.
So, Newton's first law actually gives the concept of inertia.
So, the given statement is true.
