Final answer:

The Fed ensures enough currency and coins are circulating to meet public demand, increasing it during Christmas shopping season and reducing it in January.

Step-by-step explanation:

True.

The Federal Reserve, commonly referred to as the Fed, ensures that enough currency and coins are circulating through the financial system to meet public demands.
