Answer:

True. A permanent magnet like the earth produces its own B field due to movement of the iron core. The earths magnetic field is the reason why we have an atmosphere and it also is the only defense against solar flares. A coil of wire or solenoid that has current have so much moving charge that the motion of the electrical charge can create a significant G b-field
