Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

If the data does not support your hypothesis you reject your hypothesis. The information given to you by your data can still be extremely useful in carrying out a new and improved version of the experiment or research and therefore by no means a failure.

Some of the greatest minds and most celebrated scientists came across their discoveries either through error or through reapplying new techniques that were developed through data that didn't support their hypothesis.
