Yes,

The negative wire should be connected to the place where the negative 
battery wire is bonded to the chassis or body of the vehicle - and not 
directly to the battery.  You should also fuse it.

Advice to do otherwise applies only to ancient vehicles, and you can 
conclude that the material is superseded by information about modern 
vehicles.
