Granted, if there is absolutely no cell signal then there is nothing to amplify, but if there is a little bit of signal it can be amplified (boosted)
Again, you're not "boosting" anything. You're "retrieving" whatever signal is outside. The yagi gives you more surface area to retrieve with, but there is no "amplication" happening. You're retrieving and extending a signal. You cannot pour water from one bucket to another and expect to have more water.
