Yes. The plus sign stands for whatever exit code your phone network uses: 00 in the UK and most of the world, 011 in the US and Canada. A mobile phone converts + automatically, so saving numbers as +685 makes them work from any country.

How do I write a phone number from Samoa in international format?

What is the exit code in Samoa?

To call abroad from a landline in Samoa, dial 0, then the country code and number. On a mobile, + works everywhere.

I got a missed call from +685. Should I call back?

Only if you know someone there. Unexpected one-ring calls from abroad are a known scam ("wangiri"): calling back can connect you to a premium-rate line. Search the number first, or paste it into the callmins country-code lookup to see where it's from and whether it's a mobile or landline.
