False. Contour lines indicate different levels of elevation. One line might indicate an elevation of 100 feet, and the line next to it an elevation of 200 feet, and so on. When those lines are close together it means that the elevation is rising very quickly from 100 feet to 200 feet, which means a steeper slope. When those lines are farther apart, it means that there's a lot more space between the 100-foot elevation and the 200-foot elevation, which means a more gentle slope.
