Yes, it appears to be a winmodem according to this information:
http://www.o2.net/~gromitkc/winmodem.html
http://www.motorola.com/networking/products/softmodem.html
Nevertheless, check out this other site in case they have the necessary
drivers to run that modem:

In any case, even if you're able to make that modem work with Linux,
you're better off by running a real hardware based modem. External modems
are compatible pretty much all the time. A local store here in the Twin
Cities appears to have them within your price range. I understand there
is only a slim chance that you'll also be here in the Twin Cities but I'm
including the link just to give you an idea about prices. :-)
