The above statement is False.
A real and inverted image will be formed at the same position When the object is placed at the centre of curvature (C) of a concave mirror. Here there are two incident rays coming out from the object; one incident through the focus and the other parallel to the principal axis. After reflection, these two incident rays will form an image at point C, which will have the same size as the size of the object, and it is real and inverted.
