$8-Pmmn$ borophene is a polymorph of borophene which hosts an anisotropic tilted Dirac cone. Using a low energy effective Hamiltonian for borophene, we analytically calculate the density-density response function of borophene and study its anisotropic plasmon dispersion and screening properties. We find that the anisotropic plasmon mode in $8-Pmmn$ borophene, remains undamped for higher energies along the mirror symmetry direction. The friedel oscillation in borophene is found to decay as $r^{-3}$ in the large $r$ limit, with both the amplitude as well as the periodicity of the Friedel oscillations being anisotropic.
