Frame is actually more of a term as regards film photography. Some rolls of film have 24 frames, some have 36. 120 film may have anywhere from 9 frames to 16 frames depending on the format of the camera. So yes, frames just means how many photos have been taken and / or how many photos are available to be taken on the film supply.
