Well not exactly. The present 'common' terminology in the states is MKI are the worm and sector cars and the MKII is the rack & pinion cars that began with CSX2126. So in common terms CSX2075 is a MKI.
HOWEVER
The term of MKIII for coil spring cars is a more modern term. AC referred to the coil spring cars as MKII and the leaf spring cars as MKI.
One period use of the term Cobra MKI in a AC brochure appears referring to the discontinued leaf spring cars. From that point the term MKII is used for coil spring cars.
I'm going to stop now before I confuse myself
