Not always.

Cash game. 6 players with equal size stacks.
You're the big blind. Other 5 all in blind.

If you fold, you lose the big blind. Call
your EV is zero from the start of the hand.
Therefore the call is plus EV vs the fold.

SnG. You're the big blind. Other 5 all in blind.
If you fold you are guaranteed 2nd as long as
there is no split pot. Therefore folding is
best.

LOL. If you can actually choose whether to call the all in after the others have pushed then it's hugely +EV. That is obv not the situation at hand.
