For those who are wondering, yes, Wine is malware compatible so be careful about the EXEs you run!

I don't use Wine so I'm really not sure if this would be prevented

It is not prevented. In fact I saw a video where someone removed the Z:\ drive for wine (the path that gives windows apps access to the whole Linux rootfs) and then ran Wannacry, and it was somehow still able to encrypt all writable folders on the system.
