Yes, prepositional phrases can function as either adjective phrases or adverb phrases in a sentence. An adjective phrase modifies a noun or pronoun, while an adverb phrase modifies a verb, adjective, or adverb.
An adverb prepositional phrase modifies a verb, adjective, or adverb, while an adjective prepositional phrase modifies a noun or pronoun. Look for the word that the prepositional phrase is describing to determine its function in the sentence.
The prepositional phrase "in the study hall procedures" is usually an adverbial rather than an adjective phrase, because the substance of the phrase is a description of "where" something is. Example as an adverbial phrase: "A rule against loud talking can be found in the study hall procedures." A possible example as an adjective phrase: "A rule in the study hall procedures forbids loud talking."
A prepositional phrase is acting as an adverb when it describes how, when, where, or to what extent an action is performed. It is functioning as an adjective when it describes or gives more information about a noun or pronoun.
