Is an octopus a reptile?

No. Amphibians are animals like toads, frogs, salamanders, mudpuppies, etc., that metamorphose from a juvenile waterbreathing form (e.g. tadpole) to an airbreathing adult form. They're usually four-limbed vertebrates, and superficially similar to reptiles. Octopuses are invertebrates par excellence, most of them with no vestige of a skeleton, and also with radial symmetry, not bilateral symmetry. They have no spinal cord; each arm has a complex "nerve cord" and is capable of complex semi-autonomous behavior, hence the "nine brains" meme. Octopuses can live outside the water for at least a few minutes, for example to get out of their tank and into your tropical fish tank to eat the fish, but they can't actually live on land.
