Yes, if you are accepting .05 as the level to reject the null hypothesis.
(Which is surprising as your sample size is so small.)

Thanks, I found a website where you just cut and paste your raw data and everything is done for you. I don;'t see where I can increase P so I just wanted to be sure I was reading it right.
