You have to install both operating systems to get a 'dual boot' system. I would suggest installing vista first, then installing ubuntu. Doing it the other way around will mean that the ubuntu installation will not be recognized after you install Vista, so do the Vista install first.The Ubuntu Grub loader will be able to recognize the Vista partition and should present you with a menu when you boot the machine as to which operating system you want to use.The easiest approach to this would be to install Vista on one partition and ubuntu on a different partition of your hard drive.
When you first install Ubuntu, it will walk you through the steps to install it and keep your other OS installed. Then when you boot your dual-boot system, you can simply select Ubuntu.
Boot loader in Android is something similar like you have boot loader over the Windows PC.

Yes you can. Ubuntu's WUBI uses the Windows bootloader (NTLDR) to boot Linux. It also uses the Windows filesystem (NTFS). This, however, is not the traditional way to do things. The traditional way to dual-boot Linux and Windows is to use a generic bootloader such as Grub to boot both Windows and Linux.
