Answer:

True.

Step-by-step explanation:

Friction may be defined as the force that oppose the motion of the one object moving relative to the another object. Friction is a type of non conservative force.

Higher coefficient of friction means that friction is less. Less friction has the higher tendency to slide. Oiling and greasing reduces the friction of object and makes it more slippery.

Thus, the answer is true.
