Most often scaling and filtering is an integrated process, when one says bilinear it is usually implied that it is combined with nothing else.

Indeed. If you filter the image data, you should _not_ do bilinear on top of that, since bilinear is a box filter, so you'd soften the image for no good reason.

You still need some kind of interpolation if the zoom factor is non-integer, and bilinear is a good choice in that case.
