if you are on a steep enough hill your car will roll backwards auto or not. if you are not on the gas the engine is simply not making enough torque for the transmission to keep you from rolling. Also make sure you use the parking brake for inclines like that.
Will an automatic car roll back on a hill?
Automatic cars can still roll back on a hill, if you're in gear, you shouldn't roll backwards when you take off the parking brake. If you do start rolling backwards, you can gently apply the accelerator to correct this. In addition, most modern automatics will be fitted with hill start assist.
Why do automatic cars roll back on hills?
Essentially there is no resistance from the engine to keep the car from rolling backwards. When the driver releases the brake to give the engine some gas as s/he releases the clutch the car may roll back an inch or two if the driver doesn't have hill assist or use the parking brake.
