False. A brown dwarf is a failed star that cannot sustain nuclear fusion. When a star explodes it will leav behind either a neutron star or a black hole depending on its mass.

Can only giant stars become black holes?

The basic requisite is that enough mass gets together. This can happen with a large star if, after it explodes as a supernova, enough residual mass remains to go beyond the limit of a white dwarf, and of a neutron star. Yet there is also another possibility: a star may end up first as a white dwarf or as a neutron star, but it may eventually receive enough infalling matter to become a black hole.The basic requisite is that enough mass gets together.
