b) The given differential is yy=2t2,
Rearrange the terms,
y=2t2y
  y=1y2t2
The highest order derivative in the equation is the first derivative, therefore it is a first order differential equation.
The derivatives and the variables appear as a simple first power, so the the differential equation is linear.
The RHS is obtained as a product of two functions, separately for each variable, so the differential equation is separable.
Thus, the given differential equation is characterized as,
1. First Order
2. Linear
3. Separable
Therefore, the given statement is TRUE.
