Kinda, but you are blurring two things that are different. Resistance is very different from Standard (aka Slope or Level modes per other resources).
Resistance Mode
This mode mimics the functionality of a magnetic trainer with a linear power curve. This mode includes a variable resistance setting that can be electronically adjusted.
Standard Mode
This mode mimics the functionality of a fluid trainer with a non-linear, exponential power curve. This mode includes a variable resistance setting that can be electronically adjusted.
