Answer: False

Step-by-step explanation:

HR diagram or Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram shows the relation between the luminosity, spectral class, effective temperature , different stages of star in its life and absolute magnitude.

Absolute magnitude is the apparent magnitude of star when star is at a distance of 10 pc. Thus, the given statement is false. The HR diagram displays the absolute magnitude of stars not the apparent magnitude of stars.
