By default, Jenkins employs the algorithm known as consistent hashing to make this decision. More specifically, it hashes the name of the node, in numbers proportional to the number of available executors, then hashes the job name to create a probe point for the consistent hash.

So above answer is true for scripted pipeline, for answers regarding declarative pipeline please see other answers below.
