(N/A) $(i)$ True; the set of real numbers consists of both rational and irrational numbers. Therefore,every irrational number is a real number.
$(ii)$ False; negative numbers on the number line cannot be expressed as the square root of any natural number $m$,as the square root of any natural number is always non-negative.
