    Hi,
    Can anyone with knowledge on the subject verify if the attached pic is of a copper phone line connection?

    Sorry for the stupid question.

    Thanks.

    It's definitely a phone line connection = probably copper rather fibre

    I expect you'll see the black cable is paired back, revealing two pairs of wires, green/black and orange/white. Most likely, only one pair is connected to whatever is going into the house. The connectors are little plastic push fit things. They cannot be reused, so unless you have the means to remake them, be careful. 50v DC, not lethal, but can make you jump. Not something you want at the top of a ladder. :-o
