The statement "The null hypothesis is rejected if the adjusted r² is above the critical value" is false. The null hypothesis is rejected if the F-test statistic is above the critical value. The adjusted r-squared value is a measure of the goodness-of-fit of the regression model and is not directly used in the hypothesis testing procedure.
