In formatted I/O, yes. In un formatted I/O the concept of a line

I would probably say that even in FORMATTED I/O the concept of
line doesn't exist. The standard, even Fortran 2003, defines
I/O in terms of records (or logical records).
The one place it does mention lines is for Fortran source, which
is defined as lines, continuation lines, etc.
A Fortran record sent to a printer would normally be one print line,
and if sent to a card punch one card. On disk or tape it is just
a logical record. (The exception, it seems, is if a program is
outputting Fortran source statements.)
