Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
We know that rest is a condition when the position of the object is not changing and motion is a condition when the position of the object is changing. But rest and motion go hand in hand and without any reference object it is not possible to determine whether the object is at rest or in motion. For example, when you are travelling with your friends in a car, when you are the reference point, your friends are at rest. If a person standing outside will see them, i.e., outside person is the reference point, then they are in motion. Hence, rest and motion are relative to each other.
