In most distributions yes, there is Linux and then there is userspace on top of it. What you call "base system" is actually part of userspace, which has nothing to do with Linux itself.

No, what I call the "base system" is the result of running debootstrap, and encompasses all the packages that make a complete operating system. The kernel is just one part of the OS.
