to use web3 for ethereum whether I must run full ethereum node on the same vps

[myapple]

If I run the full node on vps it will take too much space for full node
I need a web to call web3 and whether I must run the full node?
Thanks

This might be marked as the wrong section since you're in the Bitcoin section. But to use web3 you don't have to run a full node. You do have to connect to a full node. Web3 allows you to specific the URL of the RPC server you want to connect to. It's usually localhost but can be a remote server as well. One service that provides public nodes is infura

If I call send transactions related api. Can I call remotely ？
Or I just run Metamask on my pc and use my local browser to call remote rpc？
