In case you want to resume the audio you should simply use

Sounds.pause();

instead of

Sounds.stop()

But if you want it to start from the beginning, do this.

public void Is_checked() {
        if (isChecked) {

            Sounds.start();

            Toast.makeText(this, "Sound is activated ",
                    Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
        }

        else {
            Sounds.stop();
            Sounds = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.backmusic);

            Toast.makeText(this, "Sound is deactivated ",
                    Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
        }
    }
