Are the faber-castell studio quality 128336 soft pastel crayons set of 36 oil or wax based? on their website it says oil pastels. are they lightfast

Wax. I like Rembrandt better because they are softer (but sometimes crumbly). I haven’t used oil pastels.

Can these be used in high quality coloring books as a background ?

I use my set for "adult" coloring books! They work perfectly fine.

They’re not chalk. The color is more vibrant and they’re softer than chalk, so not as brittle. They’re composed of pigment and binder whereas the major component of chalk is limestone. I would not use pastels on the sidewalk and I would not use chalk on paper.
