Answer
A is false but R is true.
Explanation
Freeware is software that is available free of cost and allows copying and further distribution, but not modification, and whose source code is not available. Free software, on the other hand, is freely accessible and can be used, changed, improved, copied, and distributed by anyone without any restrictions or payments. While free software is often available at no cost, it's possible for developers to charge for services, support, or proprietary features related to the software.
