The best answer is "No."
The full answer is, "No, I do not have one." (contraction - "I don't have one.")
"I do not." "I don't." ("I does not" is ungrammatical - wrong person - "He does not" is okay)
"I have not" is correct but rare. "I have a pen" is common. "I have not a pen" is correct but uncommon.
The afirmatives are easier: "Do you have a pen?"
