Is the space and time dimensions in Schwarzschild metric orthogonal?

Physics Asked on August 7, 2021

Schwarzschild metric does not contain any cross-terms such as $dtdphi$, does that mean that space and time coordinates are orthogonal to each other?
Should the dot product of any time vector with position (space) vector must be zero since $dt {dx}^i$ does not exist?
