Yes,an empty set is the subset of every set. The subset of an empty set is only an empty set itself.

Every set contains the empty set. Every set is a subset of itself.
No. An empty set is a subset of every set but it is not an element of every set.
The trivial subsets of a set are those subsets which can be found without knowing the contents of the set. The empty set has one trivial subset: the empty set. Every nonempty set S has two distinct trivial subsets: S and the empty set. Explanation: This is due to the following two facts which follow from the definition of subset: Fact 1: Every set is a subset of itself. Fact 2: The empty set is subset of every set. The definition of subset says that if every element of A is also a member of B then A is a subset of B. If A is the empty set then every element of A (all 0 of them) are members of B trivially. If A = B then A is a subset of B because each element of A is a member of A trivially.
Any set has the empty set as subset A is a subset of B if each element of A is an element of B For the empty set ∅ the vacuum property holds For every element of ∅ whatever property holds, also being element of an arbitrary set B, therefore ∅ is a subset of any set, even itself ∅ has an unique subset: itself
The only subset of an empty set is the empty set itself.
