There is considerable variation as to how traditional Scots is written, but it is a distinct language, not a dialect, and is recognised as such. It is spoken by ~30% of the population of Scotland. Standard Scots English is an English dialect, and is the native language of most of the rest of Scotland. Most Scots speak a mix of both languages. Scots Gaelic is still a living language, but its native use has declined, and today is only used in isolated communities (islands mostly).
