Liquid rock can be found on the surface as erupted lava, or in the lithosphere as it attempts to rise toward the surface (molten rock under the surface is called magma). Molten rock originates at the boundary between the lithosphere and the asthenosphere due to the introduction of cold wet oceanic crust into the upper mantle at convergent plate boundaries, or from decompression melting at hot spots and divergent plate boundaries. The asthenosphere is partially molten, but is mostly solid. The outer core is the only liquid layer of the Earth, composed mainly of liquid iron and nickel.
The is called "lava", before it comes out on the surface it is called "magma".
The underground liquid rock is called magma when it is beneath the Earth's surface. When magma reaches the surface, it is then referred to as lava.
Magma.
Vulcanism is the process that forces liquid rock (magma) from deep within the Earth, up to the surface. Once the rock is expelled from a Volcano, the force of Gravity makes it flow down the sloped surface.
Liquid rock beneath the surface of the Earth is called magma. Magma is primarily composed of molten rock, gases, and mineral crystals, and it can vary in temperature, viscosity, and composition depending on its depth and location within the Earth's crust.

Hot liquid rock is called magma when it is beneath the Earth's surface and lava when it reaches the surface through a volcano.

That depends where it is. On the surface of the planet it would be lava and in the earths core it would be the mantle.
