Yes it is known as steam.

I think vapor is a correct word. Thus, steam may be incorrect. Moreover the liquid is not specified as water here, so it can't be steam.

Also, *Steam is water vapor above 100°C.

I don't think steam word is only use for water vapors. Any liquid can have it's own steam that is vapor state, like.

Vapour always exist within critical point while steam exists above or on the critical point.

Critical point:- Where liquid and gas exist together.

Vapour is the correct answer.

Vapor is little water droplets that exist in the air, while steam is water heated to the point that it turns into gas.
