No. Arthropods are animals that have an exoskeleton, jointed legs and multiple body segments The classification of Arthropoda (meaning "jointed foot") is a phylum which is a larger unit than Class Insecta. Crustaceans are also Arthropods and include crabs, shrimp, amphipods, etc... They are not insects.

Class Insecta belongs to the Phylum Arthropoda and Subphylum Hexapoda (meaning "Six Footed")

It should also be mentioned that Spiders and scorpions are arthropods, but not insects either.

No, not all arthropods belong to class Insectae (the insects) but the converse is true - all insects are arthropods. Taxonomic classification has a hierarchical structure, with the phylum (Arthropoda) being a major division towards the top; below it are subgroups (subplyla): the hexapods - six legged arthropods including insects - the myriapods, including centipedes and millipedes, the chelicerates including arachnids (spiders and scorpions), sea spiders and horseshoe crabs; crustaceans (like lobsters), and some extinct groups.
