False.
While FANBOYS (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so) are coordinating conjunctions that can connect two independent clauses, they are not the only words that can join complete sentences. Other words and phrases, such as semicolons or conjunctive adverbs (e.g., however, therefore), can also join complete sentences.
