No, OpenOffice is a productivity suite similar to Microsoft Office. Linux is an operating system (as is Microsoft Windows). Both have in common that they are Free Open Source Software (FOSS), which means they are free to download and are free to change (because the source code is provided).
OpenOffice runs on Linux as well as Microsoft Windows or Mac OS X and some other operating systems.
