No.
37% is the equity Hero's actual specific hand has to win against Villain's range.
How Villain got that range (betting, calling, whatever) is irrelevant.
I didn't actually check to see if the 37% was accurate in the example in this thread.

(All options need to be accounted for.)
NOW:
value of call is this
(value of call) = (%chance to win)*(value of win) + (%chance to lose)*(value of loss)
SO, plug that into EV
EV = (%chance of call)*((%chance to win)*(value of win) + (%chance to lose)*(value of loss)) + (%chance of fold)*(value of fold)
So the distributive property applies to the big parentheses, and we have
EV =
(%chance of call)*(%chance to win)*(value of win)
+ (%chance of call)*(%chance to lose)*(value of loss)
+ (%chance of fold)*(value of fold)
Do you see it now?
