Y'all are overthinking this. The answer is clearly true, unless you're trying to make a regression model for a unicorn or something.

Aha! This is a trick question. The intercept is only meaningful if X = 0 is within the range of the data. Otherwise, it's just an extrapolation.

Of course it's true! The intercept term in a regression model represents the value of Y when X is zero. It's basic stats 101.
