    The grounded conductor, Neutral, must be only white or gray. It can also be white with 3 black stripes on it.

    All the other colors of the spectrum, including black can be used for the ungrounded, hot, conductor except green or green with a yellow stripe. These are reserved for ground.

    So yes, Black is the Hot conductor.
