Solution

The correct option is B FALSE
A coefficient is defined as a number or symbol multiplied to a variable or an unknown quantity in an algebraic term.
It is only defined for the terms containing variables and not for constants.
In the expression $4 x^{2} + 6 x + 3 y + 7$ ,
7 is a constant and therefore cannot have a coefficient.
Hence, the given statement is incorrect.
