True/False

A facilities manager is calculating the area of a renovated office space with dimensions (2y+5)(2y + 5) feet and (3y+4)(3y + 4) feet. After distributing the terms to get the expression $6y^2 + 8y + 15y + 20, the manager identifies $8y and $15y$ as 'like terms' that can be combined. Is this identification true or false?
