All content on timeline follows the same privacy settings as the object has. So if you have been posting things as Friends only, all of the content will also be Friends only. If you have been posting Public updates, then it will also be Public.

A "public" post versus a friends post[1]. And the option to switch any previously public posts to friends[2].
