Yes, it does.  Most Linux distributions do.

   apt-get install build-essential

will install the most important stuff for developing C software.  The compiler 
itself is called the "GNU C Compiler": more commonly known as "gcc".

You may also want to install KDevelop3 or Anjuta (I'd recommend the former), 
for a nice, easy to use frontend.

However, you may need other software too, depending on your intentions.  Learn 
to use synaptic or some other package manager, and you'll be able to find 
whatever you need.

Forget about "downloading" stuff in Ubuntu.  For most purposes, you can just 
use the package managers.

As for "Media player"... I don't know of any Linux software with that name, 
unless it's referring to the gstreamer one.  gstreamer plugins are all in 
packages called gstreamer-(something), but some of those plugins may use 
other files too.  Again, look through the package manager's lists.  You'll 
find that some packages recommend other packages, which may be good to 
install.  Again, it all depends on what you need, though.
