(B) The statement is False.
$A$ linear equation in two variables,typically represented as $ax + by + c = 0$,where $a, b,$ and $c$ are real numbers and $a, b \neq 0$,has infinitely many solutions.
For any value assigned to one variable,there exists a corresponding value for the other variable that satisfies the equation. Therefore,it does not have a unique solution.
