The wave theory of light is the idea, supported by a number of scientists over the years, that light behaves as waves. It has been superseded by Quantum theory, which says (in part) that light sometimes behaves like a particle and sometimes like a wave.

What is the ray that represents the light reflected by the surface?

According to sir Isaac Newton, light is a stream of fast-moving particles. This was known as the particle model of light. There is a more simplified model when you study the behavior of light as light reflects off of mirrors and passes through lenses. This model is known as the ray model of light. Light is represented as a straight line or ray which shows the direction the light wave travels. Indeed!

Would the term light year- the distance light travels in a year or 9.5 trillion km- be useful in a model of the solar system?

No, it is too large a unit so that most of the numbers in the model would be extremely small. The earth is only 0.000015 light years away from the sun. Even Neptune, the furthest planet is just 0.0005 light years.
