Scotch "On the rock" is with ice... Scotch with ice cubes.
Whiskey "Neat" is straight (no ice or mixers)... It's only Whiskey poured straight into a glass.

On the rocks is over ice, neat is without out ice

Rocks = ice. So, "on the rocks" means over ice.
Neat (also referred to as "straight up") means no ice or mix-ins. So if you like your whiskey neat, its basically just a shot.
Bottoms up!
