Yes, all rectangles are parallelograms, but not all parallelograms are rectangles.

A parallelogram is a four-sided shape in which the opposite sides are parallel.
A rectangle (and a square) is a four-sided shape in which the opposite sides are parallel and all corners are 90 degrees. The corners of a parallelogram can be 90 degrees but can also be different angles. Therefore, rectangles and squares are subsets of a parallelogram.
