No. There are many breeds that have cattle (including bulls) that are naturally polled. These include Red Poll (as mentioned below), Angus, Red Angus, Galloway and British White. Many bulls in the historically horned breeds have also been bred to be polled, or have had their horns removed when they were calves.
Not all bulls have horns. There are some varieties of cattle that have been bred so as to not have horns. These are referred to as Polled varieties, such as the Red Poll. Of course cows also have horns unless they have had their horns removed or are polled varieties. Many farmers prefer cattle without horns because they transport easier and are less likely to harm each other when fighting or in closed environments.

When does a bull break its horns?
Many bulls don't have horns because a) they were born without them, or b) they were dehorned when they were very young. But nevertheless, a bull can break his horns if he gets caught in a bale feeder or a tree branch and fights hard to get out of it. It's rare though for a bull (or cow) to break its horns because if the tough and thick layer of keratin horns are made of. You may also think that a bull has "broke" his horn when in fact he never broke it at all. Rather he would've got them tipped (tips removed with a saw or something similar) to prevent him from goring other cattle, horses or humans that need to handle him.

Are cows born with horns?
Not all cows do. Holsteins are naturally horned, so their horns need to be trimmed or cut before their horns get too big, which is when they are a few months old if horn buds can be seen or felt. However, other cows can be born polled or hornless and do not need to have their horns trimmed. The naturally polled breeds of cattle include Angus, Red Angus, Brangus, Red Brangus and Galloway. Horns is a recessive gene in cattle, so if a horned cow mates with a polled bull, the offspring will be polled. But mating horned with horned produces horned offspring, or hetero polled with hetero polled have a 25% chance of producing horned offspring.

The 3 bulls. Three bulls have enough strength to injure or kill an adult elephant because their sharp, long horns can pierce through the elephant's hide. The bulls would charge from all sides and knock the elephant down.
