No. In the southern hemisphere the seasons are opposite to us so in Australia for example it is Spring. Of course, the nearer you are to the equator the more the seasons level out although not completely because the earth is not on a level axis not does it go around the sun in a circle.
Don't worry about some of the other the answers - it is they who are the dimwits!.

I sure like Casa's and ANF's answers. And, I like your question. I love autumn. Here is a quick demonstration of how the earth spins and tilts around the sun. Seasons are different all over the world because of that earth tilt and how close or far we are away from the sun at different times of the year. This quick demonstration is great. When the image comes up, just click on the sun to see the earth move. Click on this link below and enjoy.

Here's another good one. On the bar at the bottom of the image, drag the button through the months of the year to see the earth's tilt.

Autumn is the season when the trees shed leaves and everything stops or slows down in growth. This time is different in all places in the world as the influence of the sun changes and the earth changes position.
Therefore in the southern hemisphere it is now almost there high summer as we approach the deepest part of winter.

Only in Northern countries. In Southern lands it is spring, and the Tropics don't really get autumn. It is all down to the Earth being round, and spinning at an angle to its orbit around the Sun. Find a book with pictures; it is easy to see if shown, but hard to get from words alone.

No. Only in the northern hemisphere, and even there only at latitudes which have four seasons (between about 30 and 60 degrees N).

Except on the Southern Hemisphere, where it's spring, hence why Australia never has a white Christmas.

No
The northern and southern hemispheres have opposite seasons.
On the equator there are no seasons, eg in the rainforests they have similar sort of weather all year around.

No! South of the equator, it is spring. When it is winter in the northern hemisphere, it is summer "down under"...everything is opposite on the other side of the equator.

Only in the northern hemisphere south of the equator it is summer time
