False.

Unsaturated fats are composed of a liquid molecular structure that tends to make it liquid at room temperature. The molecules in unsaturated fats cannot stack easily unlike saturated fat, thus they cannot form a solid composition in a room temperature. For an unsaturated fat to be solid, then chemical changes must be conducted, such as a change in the room temperature, or exposing the unsaturated fat in a freezer.
