State whether the following statements are True or False. Give reason in support of your answer:
(a) The Wilcoxon rank-sum test is a non-parametric alternative to the two-sample t-test when normality is not assumed.
(b) The power of a statistical test is the probability of accepting the null hypothesis when it is true.
(c) If the sample size tends to infinity, the variance of a consistent estimator must tend to zero.
(d) In the method of moments, population moments are equated to corresponding sample moments.

A survey was conducted to study the preference for online learning among students from urban and rural areas. Out of 300 urban students, 210 preferred online learning, while out of 250 rural students, 150 preferred online learning. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the difference between the population proportions of students preferring online learning in urban and rural areas.
