The statement is false. At any price above the equilibrium price, there will be an excess supply of the
good, not excess demand.
When the price of a good is above the equilibrium price, producers are willing to supply more of the
good because they can sell it at a higher price, making production more profitable. Consumers are less
willing to buy the good at the higher price, reducing the quantity demanded.
In other words, the quantity of the good that producers are willing to sell exceeds the quantity that
consumers are willing to buy. This mismatch causes excess supply, or a surplus.
