Answer:

True

Explanation:

The region defined by the following inequality


4x+7y<5

is delimited by the line:
4x+7y=5

Therefore the points that are on the line that delimits the region are those where
4x+7y=5

Since the symbol "<" represents only the values that are smaller and excludes those that are greater or equal, then the points where
4x+7y=5 are not included in the region. This is represented by drawing a dotted line
