Yes, it can store any number from 0 to 255. It is also capable of storing numbers down to -127. There are 8 bits in a byte, each of which can store 0 or 1. They represent powers of 2. So 8 bits could be 11111111, which is a binary number and can be thought of as representing a number this way:

One 128.
One 64.
One 32.
One 16.
One 8.
One 4.
One 2.
One 1.

If you add those up you get 255.
