Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
A light source is defined as an object that can emit light or light energy radiation into the environment. A source of light which emits light of its own is called a luminous object. And sources of light made up by humans or artificially are called artificial sources of light, like bulbs, oil lamps, etc. The source of light, like fireflies, emits its own light because of the chemical reaction inside of their body, which is a natural process. This method of producing light by fireflies is called bioluminescence.
The correct statement would be that fireflies and bushfires are natural sources of light.
