true

Explanation:

First Question:

Hyperbole is deliberate exaggeration for effect, not literal. "I've told you a million times" is an exaggeration, so it's hyperbole. Thus the statement is true.

Mood is the emotional atmosphere of the poem for the reader, while tone is the poet’s attitude. They aren’t the same, so the statement is false.

Figurative language (e.g., metaphors, similes) uses non - literal comparisons to convey deeper meaning, not to be taken literally. So the statement is false.

Answer:

True
