Yes. You need to ensure each of your roommates has a blackholed IP address.
That will solve your problem.

Maybe your router has some QoS options? If you can't stick your Linux machine
between the network and the router/switch, there isn't much you could do.
More seriously, if you provide them with DHCP you could transparently
redirect them through your box and apply QoS without their knowledge, but it
would be far easier to just ask, no?
