Bases are substances that react with acids and neutralise them. They are usually metal oxides, metal hydroxides, metal carbonates or metal hydrogen carbonates. Many bases are insoluble - they do not dissolve in water. If a basedoes dissolve in water, we call it an alkali.
Alkaline solution/compound is the same as a basic solution/compound. But you can specify "alkali" to refer to those bases that are soluble in water and that are salts of alkaline or alkaline earth metals too.
