False.
Explanation: Lack of predators can allow an invasive species to increase rapidly at first (a near‑exponential phase), but true exponential growth requires unlimited resources and no density‑dependent limits. In reality resources, competition, disease, climate, predator adaptation or control measures usually slow or reverse growth, so population trajectories are often logistic, boom–bust, or more complex rather than indefinitely exponential.
