Answer: False

Explanation: John Locke was a philosopher who believed that humans have inalienable rights by virtue of being human and these rights must not be denied any human. They include the right to life, liberty and property.

The Mayflower Compact on the other hand was a set of laws applying to new settlers from England who traveled on the Mayflower. The content of the Mayflower Compact included loyalty to King James, dedication to the creation of one society and belief in Christianity.
