Answer:

True

Explanation:

In a geometric sequence, the terms a[n+1] and a[n] are related by the common ratio. If the sequence is otherwise unspecified, two sequential terms may have any a relation you like.* Either could be larger or smaller than the other.

__

* If one is zero, the other must be as well. Multiplying 0 by any finite common ratio will give zero as the next term.
