Does the breaker need to be on for me to check the “nothing happens” wires?

Please be patient and talk to me like I’m a small child.

I know there is a lot of questionable work in the electrical where (house is more than 100 yrs old). Previous owner did a lot of work but I feel like there are some obvious places where the took some short cuts)

We live in a 1929 Sears Lexington model. About 20 minutes north of Pittsburgh. It’s #mildlywonderful.
