Yes, it is. The deepest points in theoceans of the Earth are in order:

Deepest Point in the World (and Pacific Ocean)

Challenger Deep, Mariana Trench, Western Pacific Ocean: 35,840 feet / 10,924 meters

Deepest Point in the Atlantic Ocean

Puerto Rico Trench: 28,374 feet / 8648 meters

Deepest Point in the Arctic Ocean

Eurasia Basin: 17,881 feet / 5450 meters

Deepest Point in the Indian Ocean

Java Trench: 23,376 feet / 7125 meters

Deepest Point in the Southern Ocean

Southern end of the South Sandwich Trench: 23,736 feet / 7235 meters

NO it is not the Puerto Rico Trench.

The 2nd deepest deep ocean trench in the world is the Philippine Trench, its deepest part is called the Galathea Depth: 10,540 meters (5,763 fathoms or 34,580 feet).

Actually, the 2nd deepest TRENCH is the Tonga Trench, with a maximum depth of 10880 m in the Horizon Deep. The 1st, 2nd and 3rd deepest deeps are located in the Mariana Trench. Challenger Deep, 10912 m; Vitiaz Deep, 10908m; and Serena deep, ~10890 m. An interesting point is that only the Challenger and Vitiaz deeps have been confirmed by dives to the bottom. All the other deeps have only been measured by sonar, which can easily have over 100 m of error, often on the side of over-estimation. Until a dive to the Vitiaz deep in 2009 by the ROV Nereus, the official (Sonar) depth was 11022 m.
