Two statements are not true: the first and the second.
- Statement 1 is false: while Australia is smaller than the continental (lower‑48) United States in area, it does NOT have the same population (Australia ≈ 25–27 million vs. the U.S. ≈ 330+ million).
- Statement 2 is false: most Australians do live in coastal cities, but primarily in the southeast/east (Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, plus Perth on the west coast), not in northern coastal areas.
Statements 3 and 4 are true: mainland Australia lies entirely south of the equator, and Australia is the smallest continent.
