Not always. Usually. If you just type MBps vs Mbps into a search engine of your choice, you’ll find quite a few sources that point out that B = Byte and b = bit.
Also, it’s even less always since there are other ways of notating datarate.
Here in Germany, for example, Mbps is usually written MBit/s and MB/s stays MB/s. Similar to kph which we write km/h. Also I‘ve seen mbps written (incorrectly) with a lower case ‘M’ and sometimes with an uppercase M.
Technically Mb/s = Mbps ≠ MBps = MB/s, if you want to stay SI conform.
It’s simply a metric not very well suited for all caps which can cause confusion, if you’re used to different notations.
Yes, but the bits per seconds are always written as bps, while the bytes per second are always written as B/s

True about all caps!
