Yes, each state is entitled to at least one Representative. The remained of seats is apportioned according to the state population as a percentage of the total US population, determined by the most recent census.

The District of Columbia, which is not a state but federal territory, has a Representative in the House but she holds a non-voting seat. Residents of the District understandably consider this a case of "taxation without representation."
