If you can hear it outside the car running while stationary then yes. If the noise occurs when moving then no, probably a rear wheel bearing.

1988. Why won't it start?

Follow fuel line to carburetor and take it loose, there should be a fuel filter there. Try changing it.

How to fix whinning noise when car is accelerating, or turning? Is the whinning noise an electrical issue, fuel pump, power related, etc.?

the whining noise is your engines alternator bearings
they are worn out , the alternator is close to failure
it is barely producing any voltage
( the battery light in the dash only indicates that the alternator is no longer generating any amperage )
