Detailed Solution

The above statement is True.
Yes, the sheet of paper falls slower than one crumpled into a ball. This is because the plain sheet of paper has a large surface area and has to face more air resistance than the crumpled one. As the crumpled one has less area, it faces less air resistance. And crumpled one will fall faster than the plain paper.
