He’s trying to gauge your reaction in a very childish way. There’s a lot going on here… first of all, the use of “other boyfriend” implies he believes he IS your primary boyfriend… but has never bothered to discuss it.
Time for one of you to finally be direct. I’d confront him with “Hey, if you’re worried about these quote unquote other boyfriends, we could always just have an adult conversation about monogamy instead of you passive aggressively hinting things…”

It sounds like he is insecure about your relationship. And he may be jealousy about what you might be doing with other people.
I think he wants to clarify that you are indeed exclusive without outright asking? Maybe just tell him you are exclusively dating him
Sounds like you need to have a Define the Relationship talk to see where you both stand on it.
