Did you include the following line

\usepackage{graphicx}

comp.text.tex would be a better group for this question.

I expect you are are using pdflatex?

png´s need some helper program for inclusion in pdflatex i think, you
probably don´t have that installed on your linux system. it surely is
available, though.

eps cannot be used with pdflatex, you can either have pdflatex trigger
an automatic conversion to pdf, or directly use the pdfcairo terminal in
gnuplot.

In all cases, a quick web search for "pdflatex <your latex distribution>
eps/png/pdf" will give you the necessary pointers.

PdfLaTeX handles the following without helper programs: PDF, PNG, JPEG
and MPS (eps output by metapost). 

It will also handle eps transparently if the system configuration
allows tex to call epstopdf (i.e., shell-escape enabled, epstopdf.sty
loaded by graphics.cfg; this is the default in TeX Live since 2013).
In Linux it requires a preinstalled perl interpreter and ghostscript.
In windows, these are supplied with TeX Live.

imho the finest "terminal", with regard to inclusion in a LaTeX
document, is cairolatex

in case you don't know about it, i'll give a very short intro
========================================================================
if you use in your gnuplot script
...
set terminal cairolatex {eps | pdf}
set output "file_1.tex"
...
set output
...
gnuplot produces a file named "file_1.tex" and either a "file_1.eps"
or a file "file_1.pdf", according to the option you specified when
setting the terminal, and you use them by having in your latex source
...
\usepackage{xcolor,graphicx}
...
\include{file_1} % NB the aside command it's not "\includegraphics"!
...
the beauty of that is, 
    - all the typesetting required in the figure is done by latex
          (a) using the same font and the same math font used in your
              document and
          (b) with all the power of latex's math
    - while the graphics elements proper, that in other latex aware
      terminals are (slowly) drawn by latex itself, are delegated to
      the screen/printer driver by inclusion of a vector graphics file
========================================================================
