This is true. The full moon happens when the Moon is on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun. Because the Moon's orbit is tilted a little relative to the Earth's, the Moon is usually not EXACTLY on the opposite side of the Earth - but when it is, the Moon orbits right into the Earth's shadow, and we see a lunar eclipse.
