Best Answer

The violin is a non-transposing instrument, which means when asked to play, for example, a "C", the violin plays its "C" and the pitch is the same as a "C" on the piano. Other non-transposing instruments include the cello, double bass, piccolo, Flute, Oboe, bassoon, Trombone, tuba, vibraphone, and marimba.

No it isn't, the only transposing string instrument is the Double Bass, which plays one octave lower than written.
