It doesn't matter what you call it, but I'd call it untrained more than skinny fat. I wouldn't cut at 5-10, 145 lbs. Maintenance or slight surplus is fine.

Don't make a muscular 8% your main objective at this stage, you'll end up spinning your wheels.

Get on a proper workout program, that'll be more important than figuring out your bf% or seeing your abs. 2x each upper body muscle doesn't mean anything.
