No first we want to identify the entities, it is must because entitiy provide the core of the data base.

Steps in designing a database
These are the basic steps in designing a database:
Determine the purpose of your database.
Determine the tables you need in the database.
Determine the fields you need in the tables.
Identify fields with unique values.
Determine the relationships between tables.
Refine your design.
Add data and create other database objects.

But why is the answer false?

I think the answer is true,
1. First we identify identies.
2. Then we may identify attributes (this part may be omited at this time).
3. And finaly we establish relationships in identities.
But in case of relational model we can't omit second step n mainly the relationships are defined between relations, based on these attributes.

I think answer is true because without identifying the entities how can we find the attribute and if we don't know all entities then we can not identifies attributes and can not establish a relation.

I think the answer is true as without identifying the entities and it's attributes one can not establish a relation.

I think the answer my be true because without entity we cannot describe its associated attributes and relationship between them.

For E-R Model this steps are applicable. Not for Database.
