yes
The location on the surface directly above the earthquake focus is called the epicenter.
No, the location on the Earth's surface directly above the epicenter of an earthquake is called the hypocenter or focus. The focus is the actual point within the Earth where the earthquake originates, whereas the epicenter is the point on the Earth's surface directly above the focus.

The map location of an earthquake is called its epicenter. This represents the point on the Earth's surface directly above where the earthquake originated.
You have confused the term epicentre with hypocentre (or focus), whereby the focus is the point within the earth where the earthquake rupture occurs and the epicentre is the point on the surface directly above this.

Actually, the point on the Earth's surface directly above the earthquake's origin, which is called the focus, is referred to as the epicenter.

epicenter
The point on the Earth's surface directly above the earthquake's origin is called the "epicenter." It is the location where seismic waves radiate outwards from the earthquake's focus (or hypocenter) beneath the surface.
The position on the Earth's surface directly above the earthquake source is called the epicenter. This is where the seismic waves originate and where the shaking is usually strongest. Scientists use the epicenter location to determine where an earthquake occurred.
