A class is not an object. It is a description of an object.

True

A constructor is a method that is automatically called when an object is created.

True

A file must always be opened before using it and closed when the program is finished using it.

True

A method that stores a value in a class's field or in some other way changes the value of a field is known as a mutator method.

True

An access specifier indicates how a class may be accessed.

True

An interface is a group of related methods with empty bodies.

True

Implementing an interface makes a class to become more formal about the behavior it promises to provide.

True
