Or train ? Or ship ?
Absolutely.
Only partly. Starlink is a wireless service based on satellites in space rather then 4/5G mobile towers in our local area.
The antennas on people houses shoot signals up the the sats and the sats relay that traffic to the ground stations.
Once the signal is collected by the ground stations it is then carried by fibre to internet exchanges to access the greater internet.That means, if l wish to go off grid, l should have nothing that shoots/collects signals of any kind ??

The device in your pocket connects to an ISP, who is also your cellular carrier. And it connects constantly, advertising itself to the local transmission towers, even when the phone is “turned off”. Your ISP/cellular provider always knows where your phone is, unless it’s disconnected from power or out of range.
Depends how you define off grid.
How would you define a grid ??
A series of usually squares arranged in a pattern. Can sometimes be other shapes like Civilisation games.
Re: other shapes, they have to be tesselations of repeating regular polygons. I would refuse to call the one on the right a grid:
And this one is right out:
Edit: I have been informed that the Escher tesselation pictured is in fact a grid and am now in a foul mood.
