Answer: The given statement is false.
Step-by-step explanation:
According to Newton's third law of motion, every action has an equal and opposite reaction. So, when we apply force in one direction on an object then the object also applies a force in the opposite direction.
Hence, it is true that two forces in each pair of forces act in opposite directions.
For example, when we push a wooden box of 20 kg in the forward direction then the box will also apply a force in the opposite direction.
But the statement two forces in each pair can either both act on the same body or they can act on different bodies is false.
