When a man jumps out of the boat on the bank of a river the boat moves backwards. It is because of the Newton's third law of motion.
It clearly states that any two forces usually happen in pairs that are also opposite and equal.
Moreover, the direction of force on 1st object is completely opposite to a direction of force on second object.

The push of the man on the boat will be action while the boat exerts an equal force on the man , which will be reaction.
