As per the Project Management Terminology, the longest path in a project sequence of activities is called the Critical Path. Because it is the longest path, it determines the duration of the project and hence the finish date of the project given the start date.

Since this path is going to determine the schedule/delivery date of the project, it is called the critical path.
