An agreement is one part of a contract. That is, you and the other party agree to certain terms. In order for a contract to be legally binding, in addition to the agreement, you must also have:

  1. an exchange of consideration - BOTH parties must "give" something to the other in exchange;
  2. Intent to create legal relations - both parties must intend for the contract to be legally binding;
  3. Both parties must be certain about what they are doing and there must be no important questions left unanswered.

If any of these things is not true, then there is no contract. Please bear in mind that I just summarised 800 years worth of judicial history into one paragraph. As I say in all these answers - go see a lawyer.

Yes, all contracts are agreements, because a contract is a legally binding relationship that exists between two or more parties to do or abstain from performing certain acts.
