Solution

The correct option is A True

The concept of using the time when Jesus lived has been universally accepted. It is B.C for referring to time before christ, that is say 1000 years BC means it occurred 1000 years before the birth of christ. Then the era after the demise of Jesus called AD(in Latin when translated, after the death of Christ.)Now we are living in 2020 AD.
