Only iMessages unless you are linked to your iPhone.
In the Messages app, you can send text messages in two different ways:
Using iMessage with others who also use iMessage. Your iMessage texts appear in blue bubbles.
With SMS, MMS, and RCS messages forwarded from your iPhone. Your SMS, MMS, and RCS messages appear in green bubbles. See Choose other devices for SMS/MMS/RCS messaging in the iPhone User Guide. (RCS messages aren't supported by all carriers or in all countries or regions.)
For more information, see the Apple Support article What is the difference between iMessage and SMS/MMS/RCS? and the iOS and iPadOS Feature Availability website.
