Absolutely, I believe you're asking about a bull though:

Cattle, scientifically known as "Bos taurus" have a specific name for both male and female sexes. The male is called a Bull and the female a Cow. It's almost like learning another language where instead of being called a male he's called a Bull and instead of her being called a female she's called a Cow. Steer is a term you will hear as well. A Steer is a bull that has been neutered or castrated. A lot of people use the term 'Cow' in place of 'Cattle' as a sort of abbreviation.

Yes. Cows are mature female bovines. Heifers are immature female bovines that haven't had a calf yet.
