True

Step-by-step explanation

Yes,The order of a rainbow is determined by the number of light reflections inside the water droplets that create it, Double rainbows( or second-order rainbow) are caused by light being reflected twice inside the raindrop. As a result of this second reflection, the spectrum of the secondary rainbow is reversed:

so, the answer is

True
