Any object upon which the only force acting is that of gravity is called projectile.There could be various examples of a projectile like an object dropped from the rest or an object thrown vertically up or any object projected at some angle with the horizontal.

Yes, It is just a case of vertical projection where angle from horizontal is 90 degrees and motion is under gravity.
