The following is an example of the reasoning of a rule utilitarian: "If the practice of stealing is bad, then one ought not to steal now, even if in this case to steal would actually bring about better consequences."

a. True
b. False

The correct answer is the option B: False.

Explanation:

To begin with, the concept of "Rule Utilitarism" refers to a type of utilitarism in where the main characteristic is in the belief that an action is right when it conforms to a rule that leads to the greatest good. Therefore that under this type of ideology, the utilitarians believe that an action would be right when the amount of good that it brings is greater than the action itself. And that is why that for an utilitarian to steal would not be wrong in the case that a greater good would come afterwards for the majority, so that means, better consequences.
