Backend Dev here. 500 is an HTTP sever response, so requires a working connection to happen. If the app isn't connected to the network, in almost all cases, you would experience a different error, such as connection timed out, but not a 500.
You are right.
I was thinking of a case where there was a network connection problem and instead of precisely reporting that, the frontend told the user it was a 500 instead.
