When we say deductive reasoning, this is also referred to as the top-down logic or from general to specific kind of logic. In this case, a conclusion is being made based on different premises which are considered true and relevant. Therefore, in the given statement above, I can say that it is false. The one that is being defined above is inductive reasoning. Hope this helps.
