apple watch with a separate phone line subscription (or not)?

Do I need to buy an Apple Watch 7 with a GPS and a separate phone line for the apple watch to record my Activities (Steps,Calories, Distance?).


I'm a bit confused about what the separate phone line is used for, other than phone calls, texts and maybe email.

A GPS-only watch can do everything a GPS+Cellular watch can do as long as the paired iPhone is nearby. There is no need to get a cellular watch to record your steps, calories, distance, etc. Even if your iPhone is not with you, both versions of the watch will record that data.
