You are correct.
It's the same for Linux as well.

This is not quite correct:  pushing the Print Screen key in Windows
puts a copy of the current screen onto the Clipboard, which can then be
pasted into any picture-editing software, like the Windows accessory
Paint.

.jpg), or it can be printed.

If, as is common, a picture of only the currently active window is
desired, Alt-Print Screen puts only that portion of the screen onto the
Clipboard.

I believe that the above is true for all versions of Windows.
