Can I delete Mac backup if I use Icloud?

I have been using my mac to backup my iphone for awhile. My mac didn't have a lot of storage so I decided to get icloud and back my phone up to it. I successfully backed my phone up to icloud, so does that mean I can delete the backup that is currently on my mac? Will it still be saved?

MacBook Air 13", macOS 10.15

If you delete it, it won't be saved.


To answer your original question, you can backup only tp iCloud if you wish.
