Sometimes true. It is true unless both the angles are right angles.

If two angles are acute, then they are supplementary. FALSE

Example:
We have ∠A = 25°
∠B = 63°

Then,
∠A + ∠B = 25° + 63° = 88°

Now, we know supplementary angles are the angles that add up to 180°. But in this case, the two ACUTE angles don't add up to 180°. So, this supports that the statement above is false!
