So it is the first thing that gets executed. No matter of you are going to start WB or a game from that disk.

There are other tools, you can run later e.g. via icon for WB as well...

Or can it run without Workbench?
yes - with or without.

AFAIK Amiga doesn't have something like autoexec like in DOS.
That now is a different story, but AmigaOS has the startup-sequence in the "S" drawer in your Workbench (or many other system-friendly boot disks.)
