No.

Work Step by Step

(d) During the flight, $v_{y}$ gradually decreases from $v_{0y}$ until it becomes zero at the maximum height. After a momentary zero, it becomes more and more negative until the end of flight. We found in part c that $v_{y}=4.80m/s>0$ when the ball hits the wall, so it is still positive, decreasing to zero, meaning that it has not reached the highest point yet.
