Detailed Solution

The above statement is True.
Because the earth is a large magnet, a freely suspended magnet always points north-south. The earth's magnet's north pole attracts the magnet's south pole and vice versa.
Because it attracts the south pole of the suspended magnet, the north pole of the earth's magnet is in the geographical south.
