    Yes.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    If we add a fixed number to each term of an arithmetic sequence, we are still going to be having an arithmetic sequence.

    For example, given the following sequence:

    1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 ...

    The difference between consecutive terms is 2, therefore the pattern is adding two to the previous term.

    If we add a fix number, let's say '3':

    1+3, 3+3, 5+3, 7+3, 9+3, 11+3 ...

    4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 ...

    We notice that the pattern is the same, and it's still an arithmetic sequence.
