Always.
The answer to these kinds of questions needs you to consider what is a rectangle. You must investigate the definitions. A reliable dictionary will tell you that a rectangle is defined as a 'four-sided plane with four right angles.'
does a square fit that definition? yes. then a square is always a rectangle - it just happens to also have 4 equal sides.
definitions.

Of course. Always. But not all rectangles are squares. A rectangle is a 4-sided polygon with 4 right angles. A square is a rectangle with equal sides.

Yes, in Mathematics you would call a square a rectangle.
However, when you talk to someone I wouldn't advise you calling a square a rectangle.
I hope this helps.
