As others have mentioned, there are pluses and minuses to either
approach.  Here is my take on either scenario:

1. C first, Ruby next: You learn the intricacies and then get spoiled
with the ease-of-use later and appreciate each language.
2. Ruby first, C next: Easy learning with forgivable syntax.  When you
learn C, you'll find it "verbose" and strict.
