No, it is an adjective."Steep" is usually an adjective, or word used to describe a noun. For example, if you say, "That was a steep cliff," then "steep" describes the "cliff." A noun is a word used to describe a person, place, or thing.

However, there are cases when you can use the word steep as a noun, in which case it means a steep slope.
