If you're absolutely certain that YOU know what you're doing and the person connecting the jumper cables to the OTHER car knows what he/she is doing, it will be okay.
On the other hand, if you reverse the polarity of the batteries, bad things can happen.
But, when we bought our new car I told my wife to NEVER jump start anything, never tow anything and don't take it off road. Following that advice, her car has performed well and for quite a while.
She didn't listen to me about food and drinks in the car and she allowed the grandkids to eat snacks there a few times and we have a crappy looking back seat.

Considering that this is in the car starting problems category, I am assuming you mean a Jump Box to start a car. In this case, a jump box is a device with a battery and attached cables that can be used to jump start your car. This is used when a car battery has died. Another alternative is to use jumper cables with another car.
Yes, attach the cables to the red and black jump start posts under the hood.
bad battery or loose battery cable
The starter on a car requires a lot of electrical current to rotate the engine fast enough for it to start. When the car's battery doesn't have enough electricity to do this a battery from another car or another source of electrical current can be supplied (jumpered) to the car to "jump start" it.
