You may call the mean value theorem valid, but you cannot call it "true."

Sigh, I've been arrested by the self-anointed semantical police again....

Listen: I reject your statement. The mean value theorem is true, and its proof is also true.

If you're still confused, keep in mind that here, I am using the word "true" as would an ordinary English speaker. That is because I am participating on an American political discussion board. I don't know where you think you are.

Is Cantor's continuum hypothesis true?

Your wish to ignore mathematical terminology is noted.
