Yes, taking a bus is the cheapest way.
Another way, not cheapest but acceptable is hiring a 4 seat car with driver, around VND 300.000

As Sophie said:
here
Bus number 7 connects the airport to Kim Ma bus station.
Bus number 17 connects the airport to Long Bien bus station.

Kim Ma is just to the west of the main city.
Long Bien is on the NE corner of the Old Quarter (near enough)

You did not say what time you arrive. The last bus is 2200 hours

rk, Bicycle is also cheap. Fractionly more than walking because you have wear and tear on the tyres and need to pay 5cents to get them pumped up by the guys with compressors on the side of the road.

Noibai Airport Public Bus http://airportpublicbus.blogspot.com : The bus stop is just on the right side of the terminal exit. Traveling by bus costs 5,000 VND (0.3 USD) per person and takes about one hour.

^ taking into consideration wear and tear on bicycle tyres and depreciation of 20% per annum on the bicycle, and oil and grease for the chain, the bus at 5,000 VND may be the best option as the cheapest transfer.
You would probably have to spend a dollar or two for water and a dollar for sunscreen with the bicylce option anyway.

Bassalegboy - Bus number 7 connects the airport to Kim Ma bus station
ntv - Bus number 7 connects the airport to Cai Giay bus station

Is Kim Ma and Cai Giay the same busstation?

Steal a motorbike or car. No need for water or sunscreen. Also pretty quick.... Steal a police car with sirens if you're in a real hurry.

Not sure, sorry. I have used only the #17 as it went close to my hotels in the past.

4, 7, 8 and 13.
Very strong catapult would also be cheap.
