Which SOP to use for containing basic points/polygons

Hello, I'm new to this forum and fairly new to Houdini.

I have two questions that i couldn't find answers to via search engines or the help files.

1) Looking at the picture below, what type of object are the black lines connecting the points? By that i mean, do they have a name and what is their type within houdini (e.g. primitive, polygon, edge)?

2) I want to write such points, connected by lines, using python. For a sequentially connected series as shown in the image, the curve SOP seems to work well (and draws lines automatically). Let's say i wanted to connect the points more arbitrarily, e.g. single points connecting to multiple others; is that possible with these (point/line) objects, and if so, into which type of SOP do i write them?

Thank you,

Adrian
