Apple did not make the first personal computer. A company called Micro Instrumentation and Telemetry Systems (MITS) produced a kit in 1975 that you could assemble into the Altair 8800 microcomputer which is considered to be the first personal computer. The sales of this computer were higher than expected which indicated that there was a demand for personal computers. This inspired Apple and many others to start developing and selling their own brand of personal computers.

The term Personal Computer dates back to the early 1960's when people were predicting such devices at a time when computer users had to share a connection to a large mainframe computer. The Hewlett Packard 9100A was advertised as a personal computer in the late 1960's but would be considered a programmable calculator today. With the arrival of microprocessor chips in the early 1970's early personal computers were sold in a kit form that people had to build themselves. The Apple I was one of the first personal computers to be sold ready built. This was replaced by the Apple II which was marketed as a personal computer in 1977. Other early personal computers include the Commodore PET and the Tandy TRS-80.So... to answer the question: No Apple did not create the term Personal Computer but it was one of the first creators of personal computers.
