SOS on iWatch

I stupidly asked the following about an iPhone, but I meant to ask it of iWatch. Thanks to those who answered the wrong question.

If my wife's Apple Watch 7 with SOS doesn't have a cellphone account and she falls and can't get up and she is in a cell-tower rich area, will SOS call my cellphone and/or call for an ambulance?

Family Setup of Apple Watch and fall dectection Hi, Can I setup an Apple Watch SE (with cellular) for an elderly relative using my iPhone and have fall detection work even though the don't own an iPhone? I presume because it has cellular it will be capable of making calls to emergency services without using an iPhone? Many thanks, Michael
