When multiplying (or dividing) both sides of an inequality by a negative number, the inequality symbol must be reversed/flipped, regardless of how many steps taken when solving the inequality.

If you were to multiply (or divide) by a positive number, then you would not have to reverse/flip the inequality symbol.

The question in the image is incomplete, so I cannot provide a true/false answer, but this information should be what you need to easily choose an answer.

Let me know if you need any clarifications and happy studying~
