Yield-to-maturity is the total annualized return if you hold a bond to maturity, accounting for coupons and any premium/discount to par.

Why does bond price move opposite to rates?

When market rates rise, existing lower-coupon bonds become less attractive and their price falls to bring effective yield in line with the market.
