You must install nodejs which comes with npm first.
The command you are trying to use is npm and i feel like it is not installed.

You probably installed npm with NodeJs and truffle properly. The error is about your file don't have a file extension and VS Code can't recognize your language. You have to type npm init -y in the terminal. Then, when you type truffle init and press Enter, truffle will create the necessary dev environment for you. Open the file explorer by pressing Ctrl + B and create a file named MyContract.sol in the contracts folder. You can now start writing code in Solidity. For more instructions follow this guide.
Note: Make sure you type the commands in the folder where you want to create your project.
Or you can just create a file with .sol extension like MyContract.sol and write your code in it but you need to use truffle to compile and deploy your contract.
