Are the ac compressor and power steering connected. Mechanic says they need to replace compressor on AC although we just want the power steering belt replaced

there's a serpentine belt that connects everything together, I have the same year car that recently had the same problem, they wanted $1500.00 to replace the a/c compressor, and I had a friend rebuild it instead. My advise, spend the money, it's worth it, I've had so many problems since, I'd have paid it too if I knew then what I know now.
hope that helps.
