True.

Java source code is called "platform independent" because it runs on top of the Java Runtime Environment (JRE). In order for this to work, a special JRE must be created for the platform you want to run a Java program on.

Is Jvm in the system?

The JVM (Java Virtual Machine) is a part of the JRE (Java Runtime Environment).The JRE is comprised of the JVM and the Class Library.The JVM takes the java language and compiles it into Bytecode which can then be interpreted as machine code by the platform(OS). The JVM will compile byte code specific to the OS it is being deployed upon. The JVM allows the Java language to be platform independent.
