Answer»

Right ANSWER is (b) False

The best I can explain: The range of the aircraft is DECREASED if the aircraft is flown at a higher than optimum altitude. This is caused DUE to exceeded mach number and increase in drag. To avoid this condition an aircraft is ALWAYS PREFERRED to fly below optimum altitude.
