I remember something about how dollar rolls are used in the context of mortgage-backed securities, but I can't recall if they are the same as repurchase agreements.

True, for sure. I remember learning in class that dollar repurchase agreements and dollar roll transactions are used interchangeably to refer to the same type of transaction. No need to overthink this one.

Okay, let me think this through step-by-step. A dollar repurchase agreement involves the sale of securities with an agreement to repurchase them at a later date, right? And a dollar roll is a type of repo transaction... I think the key is whether they are considered the exact same thing. I'll go with False just to be safe.
