Not necessarily. Nearly half the US Supreme Court's decisions each year are issued with no opinion, and go unnoticed by the press and public. Of the remaining approximately 70-80 cases in which the justices hear arguments and issue a full written opinion, all have at least one opinion (the opinion of the Court, or majority), but some also have a varying number of concurring and/or dissenting opinions, as well.

There are several other types of opinions the Supreme Court may issue. For more information, see Related Questions, below.
