Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Unless acted by another force a body moving at constant velocity or at rest remains at that state. So, yes an object at rest has no net force acting on it. Only when another force is acted on the object the object will move. This property is known as inertia. When the body is at rest it is known as inertia of rest and inertia motion when it is moving.
