[R] Correct Interpretation of survreg() coeffs

Am I correct in assuming that the output below essentially translates to Males have a mean time that is significantly lower than Females? Is this the correct way to interpret the fact that the coefficient is negative? Assume the variale sex is treated as a factor with Female =0 and Male=1.
