No, Scotland is not part of the British Empire. The British Empire was a historic collection of territories, colonies, and dominions overseen by the United Kingdom. Scotland is a country that is part of the United Kingdom, along with England, Wales, and Northern Ireland.
The British Empire claimed the most land in history, with territories and colonies in various parts of the world, including North America, Africa, Asia, and Oceania. At its peak, the British Empire covered almost a quarter of the Earth's total land area.
England believed that the colonists had to be responsible British citizens because they saw the colonies as extensions of the British Empire. Maintaining control over the colonies was seen as crucial for economic gain, political stability, and national security. Additionally, England viewed the colonists as British subjects who owed allegiance to the Crown regardless of their distance from the mother country.

Taxes were implemented in the British colonies of North America to help pay for the various wars the Empire was engaged in. Since the American colonies were among the wealthiest in the British Empire it made sense to Parliment to tax them to help pay the bills for the defense of the British Empire. The problem with this was that the colonies had often times had to defend themselves against Native Americans, the French and Spanish. It made little sense to Americans for them to have to pay to once to defend themselves and then pay again to defend an entire empire.
All non British, countries, colonies, territories or protectorates were not part of the British Empire.
