Can Broadband ISP's Specify the Brand of Modem Used?

I just moved to Munford, Tn and went to the Munford, Tn office of
the Millington Telephone & Cable Co. to obtain a Cable Internet service.
The person who spoke to me said that my Cable Modem wasn't usable.
My question is : can a ISP (Cable or DSL) specify which brand of Modem
I can and cannot use with their Broadband Service.
Don't get me wrong I'm not angry just curious.
