It's a trait commonly experienced by many on the autism spectrum, yes. However, there are different kinds of change, and some are less stressful than others. For example, there is change that the person themselves wants to instigate, such as the type you can't wait to have happen.
Because that change will be your choice, there will be gladness, relief and motivation rather than stress.
Then there's unexpected change, sudden change, changes that are thrust upon the person by someone else or simply by life. Those kinds of changes can be inherently more stressful -- to NTs too, not just people on the spectrum. But many people on the spectrum will find those particularly stressful and hard to cope with. Not all, but many may. Because, it's a disruption to routine, predictability, expectation, and the person's preferred way of things.
Personally I'm really bad with change that I haven't myself instigated. If I want to rearrange all my furniture because I'm bored, that's going to be a positive and exciting and happy change for me. Or even if I find a nicer place to live and completely move homes altogether.
But if I get evicted, or the rent goes too high and I HAVE TO move, that is the kind of change that will be extremely stressful for me and I'll experience it as a horrible thing.
But then, that would be horrible for any person.
