Copper losses are directly related to loading of the transformer. Iron (core) losses are a result of magnetizing of the core of the transformer, and are relatively constant from no load to full load. With this in mind, it should be clear that the above statement is false. Maximum efficiency results with low core losses, and low copper losses. Copper losses cannot be helped, so it is important to minimize core losses to increase the efficiency of a transformer.

AnswerYes, it is perfectly correct -well, with the proviso that Transformers normally operate somewhat below full load and, so, are designed to achieve maximum efficiency somewhat below full load.

A transformer's maximum efficiency does indeed occur when the copper losses and iron losses are equal. Unfortunately, the mathematical proof of this is too complicated to reproduce here, I suggest that you check out any reputable electrical engineering textbook.
