No, a jellyfish is not a fish. It's invertebrate.
An Jellyfish, despite it's name (Jelly-FISH), Is not truly an Jellyfish. It is made of 95% water, and doesn't have the proper organs/ bones to be a fish. (Such as: Example, Jellyfish does not have a brain, gills, bones, and blood.) Jellyfish belong in an group name the invertebrates, which is animals that do not have an backbone.
No. One obvious distinction is jellyfish don't have a backbone (vertebrae).

Yes. Although jellyfish lack many major body systems and characteristics that you would imagine all animals have, such as a heart, brain, personality, etc, they are technically classified as being in the kingdom of animalia, and the phylum cnidaria.
