Yes, they are metals.
Specifically they are transition elements.
Metals like these have the following properties:
•They are harder and stronger than the metals in groups 1 and 2.
•They have much more higher densities than the metals in groups 1 and 2.
•They have high melting points.
•They are less reactive metals.
•They form a range of brightly coloured compounds.
•They are excellent conductors of heat and electricity.
•They show catalytic activity as elements and compounds.
•They do not react (corrode) so quickly with oxygen and/ or fill up.
•They form more than 1 simple ion (they have many uncommon valences)
