You can specify the kernel to be installed with the "--linux-packages"
option to "lb config", either on the command line or in auto/config.
IIRC, it is however not possible to specify
"linux-image-amd64/jessie-backports" at that point. You can explicitly
install linux-image-4.8.0-0.bpo in the chroot later on by specifying it
in package-lists. This will install the backport kernel *in addition* to
3.16, but it should still end up as the kernel used to boot. If not, try
to remove 3.16 in a chroot hook.
Remember that you need a sources.list entry for jessie-backports as well.
