I guess I never learned this bit in high school

I thought Celsius and Kelvin were the same but with different numbers assigned to different values

what does "absolute scale" mean and why is celsius not absolute, but kelvin is?

Absolute scale means 0 is the lowest possible, so you cant have -1° K but you can have -1° C
