I do not think there is a scientific name for the mixture, as oil is less dense then water, and it will not mix with water when placed together, instead it will just float and form a top layer.

Oil and water don't usually mix, unless forced to by an outside force. The resulting mixture would be called an emulsion.

All mixtures are defined as heterogeneous true or false?

False. By definition, a solution is a homogeneous mixture, that is to say, everywhere in it its properties are the same (one phase only). An example is a non saturated mixture of salt and water.The opposite is a heterogeneous mixture, where there are regions (phases) of different characteristics. An example is a mixture of oil and water.
