Yes. Green tea has some vitamin C, whereas black tea has none. The oxidation process used to create black tea destroys the Vitamin C.

The amount of vitamin C in green tea is small but measurable, usually about 2-5% of RDA per cup. It's not enough to act as a primary source of vitamin C in the diet, but it's enough that someone who drinks a lot of very fresh tea may be getting some benefit from it.

Green tea is supposed to have vitamin C more so than a single orange but doesn't adding the hot water to it kill the vitamin C same for vegetable soups how come they have nutrition in them after heat?

The statement that Green tea has "more vitamin C than a single orange" is a baseless myth. Statements like that are sometimes made as bogus health claims by companies trying to promote their own green tea products. The amount of Vitamin C in green tea varies by type, but it tends to range from between 2%-10% of recommended daily allowance (RDA), per cup. An orange, by contrast, tends to contain around 100% of the RDA. About heat, heat does cause Vitamin C to break down, but heating something to boiling still preserves much of the Vitamin C. Even things heated well above boiling still will have some Vitamin C, just less than before they were heated.
