How can I download a .exe file from a given URL?

I would like to download, then install a .exe file from a URL via the command line via wget or curl. Specifically MS Build Tools 2015 () .

I understand that I cannot install a .exe through Ubuntu, and must install wine to do so. (Please let me know if anyone has any other recommendations.)

How would I go about downloading the .exe file from the given URL?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
