What is it called when a selsmic wave bounces backward when it reaches a boundary?

It is called seismic wave reflection. When a seismic wave encounters a boundary between different materials with contrasting density or rigidity, some of the wave energy is reflected back towards the source.

That would be a P-wave or Primary wave which is a longitudinal seismic wave.


Can there be a seismic wave without having an earthquake?

It is possible to have a seismic wave without having an earthquake. Any wave moving through the ground is a seismic wave, and all earthquakes are seismic waves. But seismic waves can be created by volcanic action, landslides, meteor strikes or the like. Though all earthquakes are seismic waves, not all seismic waves are earthquakes.
