The answer would be true, yes these terms are like terms.

By definition, like terms are any two terms that contain the same variable which are raised to the same power.

Because both terms have two variables, a and b, and the a variable of both are raised to the second power, and the b is raised to the 3rd power, both terms are considered like terms.
