This is an example of passive euthanasia.
Euthanasia is mercy killing - when somebody is in a lot of pain and there is no cure for it, so they are killed (in some countries, this is legal, in some, it is not).

Answer:

The given statement is true.

Explanation:

Economics is defined as the science of utilization of scarce resources so that the collective needs of the society are fulfilled to the most extent resulting in the most efficient use of the resources.
