Links coming to your site are backlinks. Whether they are helping or not to get your site ranked, its a totally different thing.
Links from directories doesn't have impact on the SERP's but they certainly help in direct marketing.

Not directly. They can get you some sweet links indirectly though. I got some. But they are paid directories that is to be said.

Paid directories works for earning links. I have a ton of links which are earned from them.

Yes, it count as backlinks, but Linking to directory sites doesn’t make sense for most, especially if you’re working on a site that has nothing to do with directories. Think about while making backlinks for your websites.
