What part of speech is figure?
A part of speech -- there are eight -- defines the classification of a word.For example, run is a verb, house is a noun and so forth.A figure of speech is a phrase used for emphasis which is not real.For example, 'you eat like a horse' doesn't mean that the person eats standing on all fours with chin in trough munching on oats. That figure of speech means that the person consumes more than average amounts of food.So a figure of speech is not a part of speech in the sense implied by your question.Another answer:'Figure of speech' is a noun phrase.

Is young shoulders a synecdoche?
Possibly, if the context is something like " Problems that the old fail to solve today will rest on young shoulders tomorrow." Otherwise it is merely a noun modified by an adjective.No, young shoulders is not a synechdoche, which is a figure of speech in which a part is used for the whole (as hand for sailor), the whole for a part (as the law for police officer), the specific for the general (as cutthroat for assassin), the general for the specific (as thief for pickpocket), or the material for the thing made from it (as steel for sword).I don't see any relation between young and shoulders.
