Final Answer : True, Explanation :  Inferential statistics allows us to make projections or draw conclusions about a population based on a smaller sample size. However, the level of uncertainty, or margin of error, increases as the sample size decreases. As long as we are willing to accept this level of uncertainty, we can use inferential statistics with a smaller sample size.
