Tracking steps with Health App verses Fitness away from phone

Hello, Does the Apple Watch 8 track steps in coordination with the Apple phone health App while away from phone or when out of wifi range and without cellular data. I know it says it does track with fitness App but the Health App is separate from the Fitness App.

Health automatically counts your steps, walking, and running distances. And, if you have an Apple Watch, it automatically tracks your Activity data. For more info, see:
