By default, a background layer is intended to be rectangular and opaque. It's generally a "locked" layer, in that you can't change those 2 parameters. When making alterations to that layer which may require transparency or translucency, your layer will change to a "regular" layer. For example, if you use the crop tool and turn off the Delete Cropped Pixels option, you'll have a converted layer, because PS needs to retain those pixels, but hide them from you. If you have Delete Cropped Pixels turned ON, you will have a background layer, because the edit was "destructive" (permanently changing pixels).
