Does a banshee always hum while hunting Phasmophobia?

No, a banshee doesn't always hum during a hunt in Phasmophobia, but it has a higher chance to perform unique singing/humming ghost events, and it can produce a distinct banshee scream on the parabolic microphone during hunts, which is a strong indicator.

How to tell if it's a Thaye?

To tell if it's a Thaye in Phasmophobia, watch for it being extremely fast and active early on, hunting at high sanity (around 75%), and then progressively slowing down, becoming less active, and losing its hunting speed as you spend more time in its room, aging it, making it easy to evade later in the game. Use an Ouija board to check its age, which will increase as it ages, or note it doesn't gain speed from line-of-sight like other ghosts.

Will Banshee hunt if Target is outside?

Yes, a Banshee will hunt if its target isn't in the house, but it acts like a normal ghost and will chase/kill anyone it finds, ignoring its usual single-target restriction, though its hunt trigger is still based on its target's sanity, making it less aggressive if the target stays outside.
