Which of the following statements is false?
$1$. If $A$ is a skew-symmetric matrix of order $5 \times 5$,then the rank of $A$ is less than $5$.
$2$. If $P$ is a non-zero column matrix and $Q$ is a non-zero row matrix,then the rank of $PQ$ is $1$.
$3$. The rank of $\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 & 3 \\ 2 & 3 & 4 \\ 5 & 6 & 7 \end{bmatrix}$ is $2$.
$4$. If the lines $a_r x + b_r y + c_r = 0$ $(r = 1, 2, 3)$ are distinct and intersect at a point,then the rank of $\begin{bmatrix} a_1 & b_1 & c_1 \\ a_2 & b_2 & c_2 \\ a_3 & b_3 & c_3 \end{bmatrix}$ is $3$.
