running exe in Linux

I have built a simple console application in c++ vs2010 that just displays one line of text. Is it possible to run this executable from the Release folder in Linux? Say I put the Release folder on a thumb drive, open it on a linux machine?

I was under the impression that console application written in c++ could run in both windows in linux? how mislead am I?

a) You need to run the executable with wine and emulate a windows environment
- OR -
b) You need to compile your code for your Linux distribution.
