Yes.

P.S.: I failed to post the above with the error message 'The content is too short', so I need to write something else.

With C#, the object instance of the reference is always created on heap, but the reference itself is stored somewhere depending on the context: it can be instance member or static member or a stack variable. Even though the class can provide a static (factory method), its implementation ultimately always uses new.

(C++/CLI is the exclusion from this principle: it provides value semantic even for reference types. An object can be created either on heap with gcnew or it can be stored without the reference in data segment or stack.)
