An Asymptote is a line that the plot or graph of a function tends to approach but will never touch. They are usually not part of the function graph.

This is illustrated as shown below

A vertical asymptote cannot be crossed by the graph function because it occurs at the x-value which is not in the domain of the function.

Hence, the correct answer is False.
