The vagueness of your question requires a very in depth and clear answer. Ironic, yes?
British troops were on occasion housed and fed by colonists. But, those colonists were Loyalists who did not want the Americans to win and the soldiers invited to stay in the actual house were the officers. The best example of this is the British occupation of Philadelphia during the winter of 1777-78, the winter better known for Valley Forge. Most ordinary soldiers lived in barns, storehouses or tents. And, they were given food at times.
Because I am suspicious that you were talking about the Quartering Act, the answer to your vague question might be no. The Quartering Act did NOT force colonists to house British soldiers, as colonial and, later, American Propaganda would have you believe. The Act only echoed an early law that gave the Governor of a colony to make room for soldiers in unused government buildings.

How was stationing British troops in America related to British taxation of the colonists?
Stationing Britsh troops in America was related to the British taxation of the colonists because it was very costly to get the troops there and to support them. So, Britain needed another source of revenue to support their troops, and the best source they could find was the money the colonists had. So Britain taxed the colonists with various taxes such as the Stamp Act and the Townshend Act in order to aquire a new source of revenue in order to fund their troops presence in the colonies.
