I am a beginner in python and have written a few scripts and I am wondering if there is a term for python to call and show the progress of the bar telling you from start to finish like you see in geoprocessing at the lower right corner in ArcMap ?

A good starting point to understanding this is a help page entitled Understanding the progress dialog box in script tools:
There are four functions you use to control the progress dialog box and its progressor.
This certainly works for foreground Geoprocessing and I assume that it will have a similar effect on the Background Geoprocessing dialog.
