Siblings are technically not legacy applicants–only those with a parent or grandparent who attended Penn are “legacies” as defined by Penn Admissions.

However, siblings of current students apparently do get a bit of a boost in Penn admissions, albeit not as “legacy” applicants (unless, of course, they are also legacies :)):
