Final answer:

Massive stars burn their fuel more rapidly than low-mass stars.

Step-by-step explanation:

False.

Massive stars burn their fuel more rapidly than low-mass stars.

The lifetime of a star is directly proportional to the amount of mass it contains and inversely proportional to the rate at which it uses up that fuel. Massive stars have more fuel to burn, but they burn it at a faster rate, resulting in shorter lifetimes compared to low-mass stars.
