Yes. It can also be played without a bow by plucking or slapping the strings.
There are some songs in which doesn't use a bow at all for a double bass. Other songs, though, will require that the bow be used the entire song. There are songs that encorporate both the bow and 'plucking' the strings. For tuning purposes, a bow is most likely to be used.

The bow of the violin is what makes the sound that you are most familiar with as a stringed instrument sound. Violinists put rosin (maple sap) on their bows to help the bow hair (horse hair) get friction on the strings. Hope this was helpful!

When you play a violin, you hold it between your jaw and your left sholder. Everyone holds it the same way. You hold the bow with your right hand.
