Yes; all bacteria (with the exception of a few at certain life cycle stages) are single-celled. Strepto- refers to the chain-like arrangement of the cells when there are several present (as opposed to staphylo- which would be a bunching of them like grapes). -coccus refers to the shape, which is golbular and round (as opposed to bacillus, which are rod-shaped).
