Not necessarily. The least-squares line is the best fit for all the points in the scatterplot. if it so happens that in order to get close to some point on the plot the line has to go a little further away from some other point, the line will be adjusted to accommodate that.

Hence, the least square line does not always pass through at least one point on the line.
