The true statement is:
Imprints of leaves or footprints in sedimentary rock are fossils.
The other statements are incorrect. Insects preserved in hardened tree sap (amber) are indeed fossils, recent remains of plants or animals on topsoil are not considered fossils as they have not undergone the fossilization process, and petrified skeletal bones from an ancient mammal are definitely considered fossils.
