There are way to many variables to just say yes or no. What type of cable are we talking about and how long?

Can't just say yes or no. It depends on the quality of the cable, length, and the equipment being used. If you just want to know if shorter is better, yes. That doesn't mean you can't go longer without any visable or audible loss.

Not enough for you to actually detect a difference.
