Can a mountain bike be used more easily for riding on road?

ahe03 asked:


I intend to ride about as much on trails as on roads but don't know which way type of bike to get. Or is it easier to use a road bike for trail biking?

Also can u suggest some intro type bike names that range from low to mid-range price. I am trying to start cycling ( it is a great sport) but don't want to break my bank acct.

Thank you.
