MySQL is a relational database management system and SQL is the query language used to interact with relational databases. So MySQL is the database itself and SQL is how you interact with that database's data.

By the way, it's worth noting that MySQL is just one of many different database systems, and SQL works with most of them. SQL isn't exclusive to MySQL.
