True.
Choose
N
such that
ℓ
/2
<
a
n
<
3
ℓ
/2
for every
n
≥
N
. All the finitely many preceding terms are also positive.
Define
the positive
minimum
and finite
maximum
η
=
min
(
{
ℓ
/2
}
∪
{
a
j
:
1
≤
j
<
N
}
)
>

,
B
=

(
{

ℓ
/2
}
∪
{
a
j
:
1
≤
j
<
N
}
)
<
∞.

Every term lies between
η
and
B
, so every
ratio
is at most
B
/
η
. Consequently the required
supremum
satisfies
sup
{
a
n
/
a
m
:
m
,
n
∈
N
}
≤
B
/
η
<
∞.
