GCC has the -o switch that specifies where the compiler puts any files
it produces. For example:
gcc -c foo.c -o c:/project/inter/foo.o

In the Makefile, you can use the VPATH variable to tell the compiler
where to find the sources. For example:
VPATH = c:/project/source;c:/project/inter

Btw, if you compile and link in the same step, GCC deletes the object
files automatically.
