"Variable names cannot be the same as any reserved word as the language would not be able to distinguish between them" => True
This answer is clearly wrong, have a look at Fortran which has NO reserved keywords ! The correct answer is FALSE.

Choosing a language that has no Keywords or no reserved terms, means it does not apply to such case, you should find a language with Keywords => reserved words, that accept you giving the same name to a variable before arguing and saying the correct answer is false
