Return Value inside if statement inside for loop inside function

My goal in the below code is to cycle through the IF statement and have the function return a True value if the IF statement holds true throughout all the iterations? If during any iteration the evaluation is false I want to immediately return False. Am I writing this correctly? I get confused with the order of operations within the IF statement. Is there a simpler more elegant way to write this?

function checkGroup($groupNum, $names, $namesNow, $$group, $groupSize, $i){
  for ($m=0; $m < count($$group); ++$m){
    //checks to make sure current person doesn't conflict with anyone else in current group
    if ($namesNow[$names[$i]][$$group[$m]] < $max ){
      continue;
    }
    else {
      return false;
      break;
    }
  }
  return true;
}
