No, it does not mean that.Black holes and white holes are two different "solutions" of the equations of General Relativity; but that doesn't imply that one, or the other, actually exist. It is now almost certain that black holes exist; as for white holes, there are theoretical problems that may make them impossible, such as:
* A white hole is, in many aspects, there reverse of a black hole. And just as there is no way to destroy a black hole, there is no way to CREATE a white hole.
* It seems that in a white hole, entropy would decrease over time.
Hypothetical celestial bodies that behave in an opposite manner to black holes and rather than pulling everything in they spit matter out. White holes also have a unstable gravity and collapse and turn into black holes.
Subrahmanyam Chandrasekhar. Comment: Well, he did work on white dwarfs and also on black holes.

It is not known whether there actually are white holes, or whether they might exist - and if they do, exactly what properties they would have. White holes are a possible solution to the equations of Relativity, but that doesn't mean they actually exist. The problem is that they are in a way the reverse of a black hole - nothing can get OUT OF a black hole, and nothing can get INTO white hole. As a result, it seems to be impossible to destroy a black hole... But similarly, it would also be impossible to create a while hole.
No, you wouldn't. If the white hole spoken of in the question is the one associated with the black hole, it is a term applied to the reversal of time within the black hole. How can you see time reverse itself? Certainly you would not be able to see it from outside the black hole, and there are few volunteers for a trip in. Also, no one who goes in ever comes back, or even sends messages out. We won't be seeing white holes any time soon, if at all.
Not really "a" black hole - many black holes. It is currently believed that all, or most, galaxies have a huge black hole at its center. Any galaxy should also have lots of smaller black holes - so-called "stellar" black holes, because they have approximately the mass of a star (larger stars can become black holes).
Black holes are also studied in physics, specifically in the field of general relativity. The study of black holes involves understanding their formation, behavior, and effects on surrounding matter and spacetime. Additionally, black holes are also of interest in the field of mathematical physics for their complex geometrical properties.
Not all galaxies have black holes. While many galaxies, including our own Milky Way, have supermassive black holes at their centers, there are also galaxies that do not have black holes. The presence of a black hole in a galaxy depends on various factors such as the size and age of the galaxy.
Most black holes form when massive stars exhaust their fuel and their cores collapse. There are also supermassive black holes at the centers of most galaxies. Scientists are not sure how supermassive black holes form.
Not every galaxy has a black hole at its center. While many galaxies do have supermassive black holes at their centers, there are also galaxies that do not have black holes.
Yes and no. It is rather hard to explain, because black holes are so dark and black that no living creature can see them, which in a sense makes them invisible, but you can also see where a black hole is because it sucks in light, too, so that would also, in a sense make it visible, but the my main answer would be, no black holes are not invisible.
The assumptions are not quite correct.Scientists CAN see black holes. In fact, black holes are among the brightest objects in the Universe. Of course, light can't escape from WITHIN the black hole; rather, what we see is the accretion disk. Also, scientists are PRETTY SURE that black holes are real. As to why it is important: Black holes are fascinating objects by themselves. They also seem to play an important role in galaxy formation.
