Mostly yes, but it works the other direction as well: a fossil power station may not want to completely shut down because it expects more demand later in the day, and offer a few hours of low cost electricity to stay in the merit order.

A lot of fossil power stations cant shut down for a few hours, they have to keep themselves on.
