No. Scandium, Sc, is a transition metal.
The first transition metal is scandium, Sc, with atomic number 21.
Francium is not a transition metal.
Scandium is the smallest d-block element which in the past also made it the smallest transition metal. However, using the accepted modern definition of a transition metal: 'a transition metal is one which forms one or more stable ions which have incompletely filled d orbitals' scandium would not count as a transition metal, as it always forms 3+ ions with no d-electrons. Using this definition, the smallest transition metal would therefore be titanium.
