The trumpet is in B flat because it is a transposing instrument. This means that when a trumpet player plays a written C, the sound produced is actually a concert B flat. This transposition makes it easier for trumpet players to read music written for their instrument.

A transposing instrument is a musical instrument that sounds at a different pitch than the written music.

In contrast, a non-transposing instrument plays the notes as written on the sheet music, with no pitch adjustment.

Assuming you mean "transposing" yes, normally. It is common in symphony orchestras to have trumpet music written for trumpets in different keys, so the player has to transpose. For instance, the player may be playing on a C trumpet, but the music may be written for a D trumpet, in which case, the player transposes up one step.
