No.  With a basic (free) account you do not get any linden.  Only premium (paid) accounts get the weekly linden stipend.  You can buy linden from the LindenX on your Dashboard

Hello destinywasson. Basic members don't get lindens. The only way to get lindens without buying them is to find a job and to earn them working. Infos about jobs in SL you can find here.

Both of the answers already given are correct. Only Premium account members recieve "free" Lindens - and of course they pay for the Premium membership, so they're not really free. You can purchase $L on your dashboard (or inworld, but that's a little unstable right now), using RL funds. Otherwise, in order to get $L, you'll have to find a job in SL. Look around in the forums, under "inworld employment" and you'll occasionally find ads from employers. Many of these are for dancers/escorts, though, which may not be what you want to do. If you have a particular skillset you want to offer to potential employers, you can also advertise yourself there. Or search inworld for "hiring" and see what results come up.

However, you can still "buy" things. You'll just have to find freebies. Check out places like FabFree, and The Free Dove. Also try a simple inworld search for "freebie." These cost $0L (though be careful, as some may cost $1L, depending where you go), and some are actually quite nice.

Upgrading to a premium account will get you 1000L after 45 days and 300L a week. You get a free linden home and/or up to 512 sqm land with the membership. You are also entitled to a premium member sandbox to build in and free gift.
