Yes. (In terms of records being there.)

That would be correct if machines on each of those subnets
are set to register (only) with the WINS server on that
particular subnet.
'Owner' is the WINS Server which (directly) accepted the
registration, and thus 'owns' that record.
The other servers should HAVE those records but will
not be the owner -- if replication is full and complete.
