The word 'aqueous' is derived from aqua-, Latin for 'water', so use of the word refers to chemicals mixed with (in) water; as opposed to non-aqueous mixtures (such as solutions derived using alcohol, or other non-aqueous liquid or medium). Aqueous HSCN is listed as a sulphacid referred to as sulphocyanic acid (US/AE, sulfocyanic acid), hydrogen thiocyanide, and thiocyanic acid.

Why is KSCN neutral while NaF is basic despite the fact that HSCN is a weaker acid than HF?

HSCN is not a weaker acid than HF. The Ka for HSCN is approximately 1.2x10^-1 and that for HF is approximately 7x10^-4, making HSCN considerably stronger than HF. In fact, a solution of KSCN would have a pH very slightly above 7.0, but close to neutral because it is almost a strong acid. A solution of NaF will have a pH that is basic because it is the salt of a strong base and a weak acid.
