Yes, that is one meaning of "reference point", although the reference point need not be an object, but may simply be a location.

The objects an observer uses to detect motion?
Are you talking about a reference point?
Why do you need to include a reference point when you describe the motion of an object?
Motion is relative. There must be something to compare it to.
What does coriolis affect mean?
deflection of moving objects when the motion is described relative to a rotating reference frame.
When two solid objects are sliding past one another the force that opposes this motion is?
When two solid objects are sliding past one another the force that opposes this motion is friction
What is a place or object used for comparison to see if another object is in motion?
"reference"
What is needed to determine whether an objects is in motion?

A change in an objects position relative to a reference point is called motion.

What type of motion is it when an object travels around another?
When objects are bound gravitationally in centrifugal motion, the objects are said to be in orbit of each other.

Is everything in the universe stationary?
No. More accurately, nothing in the universe is stationary. There is no single fixed reference point in the expanding universe, and all known astronomical objects are in motion with respect to one another.
