A fat can be a solid or a liquid. Normally we refer to a liquid fat as an 'oil', but this is for a fatty compound that is liquid at room temperature. All fats can be liquified or solidified, and will still be called 'fats' no matter what.

Is fat melting a chemical reaction?

No. Changes in phase (solid to liquid, liquid to gas, etc) are physical changes, not chemical ones. If you raise the temperature of solid fat and it liquefies, that's melting so it's a physical change. Atoms do not get rearranged within the molecules of fat. But... When somebody loses weight we slangily say their fat "melted away" when in reality it undergoes a chemical reaction inside the body in order to break down and disappear.
