Brief Explanations
For the question "Are \( c \) and \( -b \) like terms? Can you combine them?": Like terms are terms with the same variable (or no variable, i.e., constants) raised to the same power. Here, \( c \) and \( -b \) have different variables (\( c \) and \( b \)), so they are not like terms and cannot be combined. So the correct answer is "No".
