Answer:
b. False
Step-by-step explanation:
A strip mall or a strip shopping centre is made up of a set of businesses that are arranged adjacent to themselves and usually have a side walk in front of them.
It's is a row of shops.
I'm the given instance Pick of the Litter built a store building across the street is a collection of specialty shops and a furniture store.
Since Pick of the Litter is not on the same side of the street as the other shops it is in a row with them, so it is not part of the strip shopping centre.
