Final answer:

False. If a court finds a contract clause to be unconscionable, it can refuse to enforce that specific clause, but the rest of the contract remains enforceable.

Step-by-step explanation:

False

The statement is false. If a court finds as a matter of law that a clause of a contract was unconscionable at the time the contract was made, the court may refuse to enforce that specific clause of the contract, but it does not mean that the entire contract becomes unenforceable. The court has the power to strike down unconscionable clauses while still enforcing the rest of the contract.
