No. It’s an option some companies sell as a bundle. I have gotten free cable box with free channels in order for me to get me hooked but I never plugged them in.

It depends on the company, at least here in the United States. I can most of the time pay for internet without cable of any kind, but I know some companies that don’t allow that.
