Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

This question would be true, if the word 'character' were replaced with 'villain'. The antagonist is the main villain, the one who opposes the protagonist, the main character of the story.

Therefore, this is false.

No, it is false that the main character in a story is called the antagonist since the main character in a story is almost always called the "protagonist." The antagonist is someone who inhibits the protagonist.
