True. Observations can indeed be categorized into two main types: quantitative and qualitative.
- **Quantitative observations** are those that can be measured and expressed numerically. They involve data that can be quantified, such as height, weight, temperature, and age.
- **Qualitative observations**, on the other hand, are descriptive and involve characteristics that can be observed but not measured numerically. Examples include color, texture, taste, and smell.
So the statement is true.
