In the first century CE, nearly all the peoples of the Middle East spoke Greek as their everyday language, except the Jews, who spoke Aramaic. Because everyone else spoke Greek, it became Jewish practice to refer to others as 'Greeks' regardless of their ethnic background. So, both gospels are right - the Canaanites of coastal Palestine were also called Greeks.

Yes, both references are about the same incident where Jesus healed the daughter of a woman. In Matthew 15:22, she is referred to as a "Canaanite woman," while in Mark 7:26, she is called a "Greek, a Syrophoenician by birth." Both accounts describe her as a Gentile seeking help for her daughter.
