In a sense. In space, technically no object floats, but rather is in continuous free fall. Contrary to popular belief there is gravity in space; it is the may force acting on objects. Most space junk is in orbit around Earth, meaning that, while Earth's gravity continuously pulls it down, it is moving so fast laterally that it never hits the ground.

This includes defunct satellites, spent rocket stages, fragments from collisions, and debris from missions. Over time, these objects can collide with each other, creating more debris and increasing the amount of space junk in orbit.
Does space junk interact with asteroids?
This would happen, space junk could collide with asteroids, but most space junk is close to the earth, away from the main asteroid belt. It would be more likely to collide with meteroids and other bits of space junk.
