The US Supreme Court is an appellate court under most circumstances. If it grants certiorari, it will hear the case.
This question only makes sense if you're trying to determine whether an intermediate appellate court will hear a case from a trial court if the case has been accepted on direct, or expedited, appeal to the Supreme Court. The answer to that question is no. Cases granted certiorari on direct appeal bypass the intermediate appellate court.
