They are an example of a trace fossil
A living fossil is a species that has remained relatively unchanged for millions of years and is similar in appearance to its ancient ancestors. These species provide valuable insights into evolutionary processes and often have unique characteristics that have allowed them to survive for long periods without significant changes. Examples include the horseshoe crab and the coelacanth.
sedimentary, as clear fish imprints are often found in sedimentary rocks formed by the accumulation of sediment over time. Sedimentary rocks can preserve fossils and imprints due to the gentle burial process that allows for the preservation of organic remains.
fossil
An imprint fossil is formed when an animal or plant makes a print in the soil. Such as a footprint.
Yes an imprint is considered a fossil if it was created by life and the animal/plant/fungi in question is no longer alive. It is generally assumed that only if it is very old it is a fossil but technically this is not so.

either: cast fossil petrified fossil imprint fossil trace fossil
A fossil created by a print or impression is called an imprint fossil. Imprint fossils are formed when an organism's remains leave an impression in sediment that hardens over time. This process captures the shape or texture of the organism, providing valuable information about ancient life forms.

A trace fossil was an imprint left behind by an animal that hardens and turns to stone

A fossil is the preserved remains or traces of a once-living organism, while an imprint is a mark or indentation left behind by an organism on a surface. Fossils can include imprints, but not all imprints are considered fossils. Fossils provide more detailed information about the organism's structure and biology, while imprints are more surface-level.
