It will.

 

This is documented in step 13 of the triggers and order of execution section of the apex developer's guide:

 The parent record goes through the full save procedure when the roll up summary is updated.

yes it will fire the respective trigger and The Document mentions that the Parent record record goes through save procedure meaning the trigger will fire on parent record if there is a modification on the field of child record that feeds to the parent as roll up
