A scientific law is based on repeated inferences made over long periods of time true or false?

This is a true statement.  When we observe something in
the scientific world over a long period of time and the same observation is made
repeatedly without variation during that time, then it is a scientific law.  If I hold
my arm out and drop a ball one hundred times in a row, and each time it falls straight
to the ground, I can say that is a scientific law.

wouldn't try to explain why that happens each time, I would simply
summarize the observed reaction.  Hope that helps!
