Final answer:

The false statement is option a. The conditional operator is used as an abbreviated version of the structure and requires two expressions separated with a question mark and colon, not an exclamation point. The value of a true expression becomes false when preceded by the NOT operator, not the other way around.

Step-by-step explanation:

The false statement is option a. The conditional operator is used as an abbreviated version of the structure and requires two expressions separated with a question mark and colon, not an exclamation point. The correct syntax for the conditional operator is 'expression ? trueValue : falseValue'.

The NOT operator is written as the exclamation point (!), which makes option c true. However, option b is false. The value of a true expression becomes false when preceded by the NOT operator, not the other way around.
