Q:
Qual é a diferença entre backbone e spine ?
A:
A spine = Wirbelsäule, the body part
A backbone can also mean Wirbelsäule, but usually it’s more figurative. A backbone is something that “holds up” an idea or a physical thing. Its meaning is similar to foundation (Fundament) in that sense. It can also be used to refer to someone’s spine, but in a less anatomical sense. If you say someone has a backbone, you’re saying they have integrity or stand up for themselves. You can also use spine similarly. If someone is “spineless” they’re a coward, or if they have a spine it means they’re not cowardly.
A doctor would rarely call your spine a backbone, and people usually (in my experience as a native speaker) use spine when referring to the body part.
Examples: The middle class is the backbone of the economy. (Supporting element)
The boy didn’t have a backbone, he just ran away.
My spine hurt for a week after I fell down the stairs.

"having a backbone" is a saying in English meaning that you have a strong will (usually). Although these two things are similar, you would not really say "I have a strong backbone" in a conversation, because it sounds like you are talking about your actual spine (backbone).
I would stick with "I have a strong will", or "mentally, I am strong", or something else along those lines.
