Boot into Recovery Mode and erase the physical drive identified in your screenshot as "Apple SSD...". Depending on the version of macOS you will be using you need to erase the drive as:
For macOS Mojave or Catalina:
GUID partition and APFS (top option)
For macOS High Sierra or earlier:
GUID partition and MacOS Extended (Journaled)
After you erase the drive you can restore from your TM backup. The problem is your boot drive is either encrypted or it has a file system issue since the volume is identified as "disk0s2".
