    An unchecked exceptions are caught at runtime, while checked exceiptions are caught at compile time.
    Given statement is false because it states that unchecked exceptions are checked at compile time(wrong)

    Unchecked exceptions are checked at run-time.

    The above statement is false because an unchecked exception are checked at run-time and never at the compile-time.
    The program is throwing an unchecked exception and even if you dont handle/declare that exception the program will not give a compilation error.
    These exceptions are also a direct sub class of RuntimeException class.
