No. The Linux kernel will generally print diagnostic / debug messages to the screen in text mode, but the output could just as easily be redirected to /dev/null, leaving no display or interface. Individual distributions usually select their own default user interface.

All Linux Distributions have a CLI (Command Line Interface), and most have a GUI (Graphical User Interface). Where a GUI is not available by default, it is usually supported and can be installed through the pakage manager. An example of this is Arch Linux, where a GUI is not included in the installation.
