In a word, yes.

The total distance from Chile to Antarctica is 4,152 miles, or 6,682 kilometres. The total distance from New Zealand to Antarctica is 3,394 miles, or 5,461 kilometres. Therefore, New Zealand is closer to Antarctica than Chile is.
Because Antarctica is way over the bottom of the earth far away from the equator. and because Antarctica is surrounded by the southern ocean
