Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

A compass will point to Magnetic North as that is where the magnetic frequencies pull the compass needle into that direction. A good way to remember this is to think about my boi, Compass Man and his quest to find Truth, Justice, and Magnetic North. In order for Compass Man to achieve that search for Magnetic North though, he needs to have his trusty compass magnetically point towards Magnetic North and not Geographic North.
