Yes, but the minor cannot be held liable with respect to the contractual transaction(s) unless the minor has contracted for "necessaries." The policy is to avoid discouraging adults from refusing to provide necessaries (food, clothing, medical care, etc.) to a person simply because the person is a minor.
