1-Is the top of, or part of the backboard out of bounds[?]

2-Would a shot up through the basket that goes above the rim then back through count as 2 points[?]

1 - Of the six sides of the backboard, the only one that is out of bounds is the back.

2 - No. I don't have my book with me, so I can't cite the rule number, but it is a violation to cause the ball to enter the rim from below.
